Despite all of the ice covering Southern Maryland, I’ve actually been enjoying the snow and slush! Since this was the first significant snow fall of the year (and caused quite the havoc locally) many folks have been taking it extra easy getting around on the roadways, and I count myself among them — though I haven’t been driving 10 miles an hour in a 45 lately. But it’s probably better if I slow down and quell my road rage, anyway! And no better day to do it than a day when black ice covers many of the driveable surfaces in town.

Here are some snapshots of my yard on Tuesday! The first was taken around 7:30 a.m., and the second was taken around 8:30 a.m. — a mere hour later! It was falling pretty hard for a while there.
