Loved it.

If you don't count the dusting of graupel that fell in 2011, this was the first time had any snow since 1985!

You are very lucky that have a view like that. I live near a metropark and consider that my backyard. I love walking at the park after it's snowed or even during a snowfall when I spot deer and it's so quiet you can hear yourself breathe.

By March I've so over it.

The sound of the surf is so soothing.

I live in Colorado and do think the snow is pretty for a day or so, then it becomes a big mess.
