Day 5.002: Snow!

Yes, it finally snowed last night.  Exile #4 was already persuading E5N1 to come out to play in it with her (Exile #3 having made it quite clear that she is no more ready for snow now than she was when it came in October), when we discovered that there was a snow delay for the girls and no school for E5N1.

I went to work as normal, but first I witnessed some fairly competent snowman construction and a whole lot of smiles.

It was already raining when they were doing this and the day has continued in English winter's day style with dull wet near-freezing weather.  There's still some snow around, but it's certainly nothing like this time last year.
