All week the weather forecasts were warning that it would snow on Thursday and Friday, and that we should expect 1-3 inches in the valley. I snapped this picture of campus as I left work Friday afternoon. There were two or three inches, and it was still snowing.
Friday morning, we woke up and it was still snowing. We had about a foot of snow. School was cancelled, so we set to work digging ourselves out.
Well, some of us worked.
Others just took advantage of a free day off school to play.
It wasn't all fun and games all weekend though. Madeline has a science fair coming up, and she decided she wanted to look at the effect of water erosion on rocks using a microscope.
So we built a contraption she could use to drip water on some rocks.
She picked three rocks she wanted to erode.
She has quite a rock collection, but she decided these three would be the most likely to erode.
She spent much of Saturday afternoon "raining" on her rocks using our contraption.
We'll finish the project this week, and I have no doubt more photos will be forthcoming.
