It was wintry times again in North Woodside earlier this week. This storm was quite the opposite of the last one that featured lots o’ sleet that mostly bounced to the ground and resulted in angular blocks of rock hard “snowcrete” that lasted for weeks. This storm’s wet snow stuck to every single itty bitty branch and transformed the neighborhood into a beautiful winter wonderland for a few short hours, before all plopping to the ground. Wet snow + no school = perfect conditions for snow people to pop up. And indeed, a few did, including this one on Rookwood Rd.

Check out a slide show of photos taken by neighbors, starting with “before and after” flamingos:

When will spring finally come? We will see. Look closely. Already there are signs that it is on its way…
