Mountain Mondays
When we left the mountains at the end of the year, we were hoping for for warmer temperatures and sunshine in Atlanta. That has not been the case so far this Winter. We woke up to five inches of snow this morning, sleet and freezing temperatures. In fact, Mr. Bunkycooks said this is the second biggest snowfall he has seen in Atlanta in sixteen years.
North Carolina was actually very pretty when we left and the skies were blue. Maybe we should head back up to get away from the snow!
Maybe not…they had ten inches of snow last night. Can we book a flight to St. Maarten? Oh, that’s right…the airport is closed. 🙁
There was no snow in the mountains when we left!
These are the kinds of days that you stay inside, play in the kitchen and read a good book by the fire. If you are snowed in, I hope you enjoy your time at home!
We went to the Christmas Parade in the mountains.
This wiseman looked pretty authentic to me!
We left sunny skies and a slight bit of rain in the mountains to come back to SNOW in Atlanta!

Snow everywhere!
I measured the snow at 5 inches!
Stay safe (especially if you have snow and ice where you are) and have a great week!
Snow in Atlanta… craziness!!! Stay warm and safe!
Wow. Is that crazy! GREG
Oh, I’m so sorry that this storm hit you guys. Here in Winston Salem (NC) we don’t have anything. Wilmington has over an inch and we have light flurries but nothing on the ground. Please be careful out there. You’ve had experience with snow, being in the mountains, but you know the crazy folk that’ll try to drive in Atlanta haven’t.
I bet you’re kicking yourself (with the good foot/ankle, of course) for deciding against going to Cancun for the conference! Just think, you could be “stuck” there because you wouldn’t be able to fly back into Atlanta! Stay warm and I’ll be thinking of you 😉
Great pictures Roger! May I have a copy of the picture of Riley and me???
Your wiseman looks bewildered by the snow! I don’t recall the Biblical story ever including a blizzard, though that would make it more immediate this year for you East Coasters. Perhaps the wisemen and shepards would need parkas instead of traditional garb? We’ve been very chilly in Northern California with some rain, but no snow or ice (yet). Thank goodness!
You and some of our cousins who live in GA are COLD! Pretty amazing that you have all that snow there in Atlanta. Do stay warm, and watch where you are walking….no need for anymore ankle problems. Stay inside 😉
Hoping that ice stays away from Richmond tomorrow! A little snow is okay, but ice =no power=no fun.
