Saturday's Snow





On Saturday we woke up to a White Wonderland. Really was quite pretty and peaceful. We putted around the house for the morning. Then we showered and got ready to head to the base. Jared had a birthday party to attend so we needed to get going. We arrived at the base only to find that everything was shut down due to weather. No commissary, library, birthday party (bowling alley closed) etc. The only thing open was the shoppette (convenience store for those non military readers) and it was obvious. That place was packed! Pretty funny to see everything shut down like that for just a few inches of snow.

On Sunday temps were colder and so it was icy and they still kept everything shut down. We didn't even go to church because our route is very narrow, circuitous and out in the country (no plowing there). The base remained shut down.

Definitely would have seen lots of people going out in this weather had it been Germany or the US.
