Grey is the color of the day, of the type that fades into white.  I’m saying it’s smelling like snow.  : )  I’m hoping its a light dusting that goes away as quickly as it comes!  I’m thinking that the road trip to southern Oregon standing between one child and school next Monday would go much better without!  Stay warm!
