When it snows HERE where I live in Southern California, it’s BIG news.  Last week, we had five days of rain- but just one town away, Yucaipa, it was snowing.  Our elevation is 1400 feet.  Snow does NOT happen here!!!!!

So, me and every other family with kids went searching for the white powdering stuff this weekend and it was very easy to find.  My running buddy and I used to run on this road during our marathon training last year.  It’s about 15 miles to my house from here.

There is always a “resident” stuffed animal on all our trips.  This time, it was “penquiny”.

Goofing off for the photographer!

Note to self: Must bring massive snacks for us to survive out here longer than one hour!

And, you can bet that there will some serious cross country skiing going on ASAP!!
