You can wait a lifetime for a moment like this.
Caught in time. Dropping from the cactus as the sun rises.
Snow like you’ve never seen it.
Snow in Colorado is expected. Snow amid the pines.
Snow in Chicago is a fait accompli. Gathering on roadsides as salt trucks pass.
Snow in the desert is…a gift. A touch from God on the backs
of weary travelers.
The javelina have never experienced this. The
quail are darting under white blankets. Children with sleds from distant lands ride over thinly covered rocks, dodging needles, giggling in the face of a certain
Urgent Care visit.
Snow in the desert.
Wear your shorts and zip up your coat.
Like life, it won't last long.
But it doesn't have to in order to make a memory.

Love it! I have never seen that either! What a gift! It began snowing while we were having my husband's grandma's funeral Saturday and by the time we exited the church a beautiful blanket of white covered everything. I thought of it as a gift of peace for us who were left here on earth.
How fantastic for your family. Memories of days gone by come to your 'new' abode!
