The last two days were truly classic fall (or as close as we get in these here parts) - clear, cool, and very welcome after the rain and wind earlier in the week. Tuesday was the stereotypical October Juneau day - complete with a number of power outages.
This morning, however, was a horse of a different color - the color being white. About 3 inches of fresh snow in my driveway.
I received a call from auntie about a quarter to eight. She was at Les Schwab along with about half of Juneau waiting to get her snow tires put on her aging Buick. Amazed she got there without a mishap. The roads were VERY slippery. I immediately went out to collect her to take her home. If she's lucky, her car will be done tomorrow. But I wouldn't count on it and if its remains icy I would just as soon that Les keeps it for a bit. I had a bit of a slip 'n slide experience getting up her hill this morning even with the Jeep.
After taking auntie home I then shoveled mom's driveway followed by my driveway. Hmmmmm. It is possible that a snow blower is in my future. We'll see.
In other news Amanda has, at least temporarily, relocated to her friend's place downtown. She is always welcome here, of course; but I do not blame her for making the move. Her apartment should be ready in the next week or so...
Sunny day at Eaglecrest. The snow creeps down the mountains.
A beautiful day
Adam is a serious snowboarder - was an instructor at Mt. Hood
The next morning... What the hell happened to fall?
Have a great weekend everyone!
