The Frozen Tundra of Renton

The view out our garage.
It's been an interesting week since we returned from California last week. I'm not sure that's been over 32 degrees here in the Seattle area. I'm sure our Spokane freinds are laughing, since they've been slammed with more snow and lower temps then us every day. Anyway, people on this side of the state aren't used to living with this kind of weather for such a prolonged amount of time. Last night's snow dump was the biggest so far, adding a couple inches to what we already had along with heavy winds. The snow is so fine and powdery that it really drifts around.
Anyway, so today we tried going out in the snow with Charlotte, and she won't have anything to do with it. She has a panic attack everytime we try to get her to stand in the stuff, and don't even think about trying to get her to walk in it!
I tried half-heartedly to make a snowman, but the snow is so dry it's not very good for packing. So we went back inside to drink hot chocolate, eat popcorn, and watch Elf.
