No, this isn’t a repeat of the photo from early January.  Taken just about an hour ago, it’s the view of our back yard.  The snow started at about 6:30am this morning and then took a lunch break, starting up again just after noon.  It has slowed down a bit now, but should continue through the evening. My work even let people go early.

Snow is not uncommon this time of year for Missouri.  We had snow in late February last year.  It’s just we’ve had so much of it this year that everyone is ready for Spring.  That’s our enclosed vegetable garden in the foreground and you can just see the outline of the flowerbeds behind it and out patio in the back left.  It won’t be long.
