The weekend of December 18-19-20 was one to remember! I was in charge of coordinating a wedding reception at our church and snow was in the forecast. I packed my suitcase and called Mom and Dad to see if I could stay with them. The flurries forecast a week earlier became as much as 12 inches in parts of Asheville! We had 1/2" early Friday morning, so I left the mountain and visited the lower elevations.
After setting up for the reception at Trinity, I came back to Mom and Dad's and started taking pictures! Then I helped Dad shovel the driveway so I would be able to get out on Saturday morning. We had 7" before I started shoveling, and another inch fell while we finished the driveway the first time. Dad ended up clearing it again Saturday afternoon when the snow had finished falling.

I finally got back home Sunday afternoon after hearing some of our roads had been plowed. The temperatures were supposed to have risen to the mid-30's but that never happened. The Highway Dept. plowed Rose Hill Sunday afternoon most of the way up the mountain, but going down Merrills Cove was a different story. Fortunately, I had no trouble in my Subaru. This was a beautiful snow and I was thankful to be out in it, even shoveling!

We enjoyed you, but not the snow, kept us from doing things. Ha.
Love you and sure had a great Christmas and New Years. God Bless all of your family.
