We had our first snow of the year recently. On February 10th, 2011 I woke up to about 6 inches of snow at my house. As I drove to town the snow got less and less until in Grants Pass there was only about an inch. The home base for Grants Pass Real Estate is about 8 miles west of Grants Pass. So at my house and in Merlin and Selma and Cave Junction we got snow. Grants Pass and near Grants Pass had only a little. By the afternoon, the snow was off the roads and by Saturday the 12th the snow had melted entirely (except for the snowman who hung in there for a few days more).
The snow was wet and stuck to the trees which made for some lovely pictures.
When I was a kid, I grew up in Iowa and we had snow and then more snow and more snow throughout the winter. It was fun for a while but soon got old. Here in Grants Pass Real Estate we get snow once or twice a year and it doesn't hang around long. So it remains fun to have snow.
What could be better than to have enough snow for fun and beauty and yet have it go away before it becomes a bother? That is winter in Grants Pass Real Estate.
We live inside the city limits of Grants Pass and we only got 1/2 to 1 inch of snow from each from two February storms, but is was still pretty. An even more unusual November storm last autumn gave us more snow (about 2 inches) that stuck to the trees more and gave a really beautiful "winter" (late fall) scene.
I agree it is nice to have the snow for post card scenes and for occasional snow play for the kids than to have it go away.

Chuck- beautiful pictures! We only got about 3 or 4 inches and they mostly melted by end of day, but still, it was FUN!
