Yay! It was snowing today in the District. This is the first snowfall this season; just two weeks ago we had temps close to 70. Given my Buffalo roots I like to laugh at how wimpy people here are about winter weather. But I will admit that this snow turned into a big icy mess.

If you click on the daytime picture above you can actually see snow on the roof of the Capitol. (Whoa, when did blogspot start posting full resolution pics? Scary. And sorry about the crooked picture... a) was trying not to get run over, and b) the security around there is a bit scary.)

Though I love the snow, scraping the windshield was always my least favorite part. I got away with it this time and made Marc do it. A comical picture since he is holding a vase of tulips.
