Christmas Day Snow in Astoria!

Christmas Day, and can you believe it's snowing in Astoria?

I looked out my studio window to see the big snowflakes (sticking, but wet), and thought I'd drive up to the Astoria Column, a high point in Astoria. I took Misty with me, and she seemed to enjoy herself. We were the only ones up there. I wish I could have seen a panorama of snowy hills, but visibility was poor due to the falling snow. http://www.astoriacolumn.org/

The photo at the right is Youngs Bay, near the Old Youngs Bay Bridge. Much wetter here at sea level.

Happy Holidays to everyone!

Hi Deanna:

Thought I'd pop over to say hello and see your pictures of snow on Christmas in Astoria. I lived in Klamath Falls (opposite end of the state from you) for a couple of years and it snowed all the time (one of the reasons I moved!). Anyway, I noticed that I didn't have a link from my blog to yours, but have now remedied the situation. Are you going to make a Verity snowgirl?

Happy New Year!

Nina
