After a weekend of temps in the 60s and 70s, yesterday morning brought a wet 4-inch snow — one of the prettiest I’ve seen in years. The winds were calm enough that the snow could cling to the tiniest branches and grasses creating a wonderland of white. My first thought was to try and get to the KU campus to shoot but the streets looked bad (we have to go up steep hills either way we leave our house) and the temperatures were rising so fast I knew the snow wouldn’t last long. In the end, I opted for my favorite morning walk spot just across the road. You may recognize the trees in the first photo. I’ve blogged them before here.

By the end of the day, only a few patches of snow remained in areas of deep shade and this morning they are predicting temperatures rising back into the 70s again by mid-week.
