It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas

In a matter of two weeks, it went from sunny fall-like weather in Visalia to cold, rainy winter weather. Although the frosty morning was quite beautiful as it sparkled in the light, we were a bit disappointed that we didn't get snow. Maybe next year...

Our backyard - unfortunately, we lost a few plants to this.

I guess we'll need to take a trip up to the mountains to see snow this year.
