Wyatt in Juneau
A Daily Photo Essay of My Journey

We have had snow on the ground for over a week now. I am always a little nervous about the early snows because they are so beautiful and yet so fleeting. November snow-stick generally only has a half-life of 2 days before rain begins to slush it away. This time it has stayed for 10 days. Yesterday we were hit especially hard with around 12 inches of snow and more expected tomorrow. Everyone is crossing their fingers for a snow-day but I think it is unlikely to dump that much overnight.

Note: I woke this morning to the news of school closure. They are expecting another 12 inches or so in the next 24 hours. It shall be another day of rest for me!!
