Snow and Hail ... woohooo

we had our first snow on Saturday... then on sunday it snowed more and yesterday there was snow and hail storms, its soo cool. It comes down in sheets and stops..

Apparently we dont get huge snow here, but a few minutes up the road and the change in elevation and you have thick snow that stays on the ground.. So unless you have 4Wheel drive or chains on your tires you dont go up the mountain this time of year..

It finally getting cold and im going to go buy a warmer coat and some boots in the winter sale next week. It still gets me that into December we have mild weather with occasional rain.. this is what i love about being here. I found out the other day that we have a Mediterranean climate... lots of sun and blue skys.. which is why everyone here is so happy.. here are some pics of the hail our front garden.
