This was the view from our back door this morning after our huge winter storm.
The view from the woods better shows that the snow wasn't even enough to cover the grass. Despite that, the hospital went into emergency lock-down. It's really more of a lock-in. Some people are chosen to work and a few sent home. If you have to stay to work, you're stuck at the hospital until the lock-in is over, even during your off hours. Jules was locked-in during Hurricane Irene two years ago. This time he go to come home because he works this weekend.
We took advantage of his unexpected reprieve from work. Jules came home around noon yesterday and we spent the afternoon watching TV and napping. Today we stayed in bed until late and made a grand breakfast. We also went for a walk in the woods behind the house. Tomorrow he goes back to work but not until 10 am! I have another day off tomorrow as all schools are closed for day number 3.
Denver had a blast. As far as we know, this was is first taste of snow. He ran around jumping and leaping about. He loved it!
To be fair, the snow was more ice than snow. We had a couple hours of frozen rain and sleet before the snow. We went to some friend's for dinner last night in the middle of the "storm" and did just fine.
