Marty and I drove up to Shingle Springs this morning to see the snow. There was still a trace on the ground in El Dorado Hills at about 11 a.m., and in Cameron Park, there were several inches on the ground, the rooftops, the guardrails and road signs, the trees ...
We went one stop farther, to Shingle Springs, before we decided the conditions were getting a little dicey for us, since we have no chains. Although the roadway was clear, the off-ramps were not, and we had to drive really slowly to avoid sliding around. After we turned around and were passing Cameron Park again, we drove through this snow flurry. What surprised me was the no-color-ness of it all - there was only white and shades of gray. It looked just like a Christmas card! Exciting stuff!
