Our First Winter Snow in Maryland,USA

Yesterday was a beautiful spring day (High 70 F) here in Northern California but still snowing in other parts of US. This article reminds me of our winter years in the Washington DC area where we resided from 1990 to 2002. 

Let it Snow, let its snow!

When I was a child (1940's) in the Philippines, my dream in life was to see and play in the snow in the US. This dream was attained when I saw my first snow in Chicago, Illinois in 1960. I was not able to document it, but the above photo taken in the front of our residence in Colesville, MD in 1994 may suffice.

Today the word snow triggers bad memories of traffic congestion and minor auto accidents when it is snowing. Other wise looking at the fresh white snow flakes inside your warm house is mesmerizing and an experience I will never forget. However, too much snow is not fun and could be dangerous to life and property.
