The SNOW is here!!!

No, this is not President in the backyard with a Russian Cossack hat on! After much anticipation, the snow has finally arrived! In all about 8 inches worth. The cold weather arrived all at once. The forecast is about the same for the next week- snow and cold.
Our backyard furniture where a few months ago the summer humidity was a killer. Tonight it is -4 degrees Frehenheit (-20 Celsius).
It started snowing yesterday morning and continued through the night.
This is our driveway....it's very steep in good weather, and we have had our doubts about being able to get our car out of the garage when it snowed. Well, it took President 6 (!) tries to finally get out of the garage this morning. So............ This is where the car will stay for the night!
This is really quite an adjustment for two people who have grown up as 'desert rats'!
But come the next morning, it IS really beautiful.....white and peaceful. It looks like we are in for a 'White Christmas' this year!
The traffic in Warsaw instantly became the worst and it is so great that the Mission Office was moved to this side of town a few weeks ago. It took the Office Elders 4 hours to drive one last time to the Old Mission Office today.

  1. President & Sister Nielson, Wow! It looks like Warsaw finally got some snow.

    My wife, 3 children, and I will be moving to Poland in the next month or two. I'll be in Warsaw next week for meetings. We attend the Warszawa 2nd Branch when we were in Poland in 2008. We are excited for the move back and hope to be able to meet you then.

  2. Judi, it's beautiful! (At least from another desert rat's perspective!)
