Yesterday, we looked out the kitchen window,

... and saw this portion of the elk herd walking down J street.  We raced to the front window, grabbing camera on the way, in time to see them hop the fence into the field, easy as you please.  We often see them in the field, but - walking down J Street?

A trail in the snow

... made by the crows trying to walk to the feeder.

The field kept coming and going

...doing a Brigadoon!

When we awoke Sunday...

...this is what we saw out the window.  10-12 inches by our measure at our house.

This was just the beginning. It started Saturday with a little dusting. We did some shoveling Sunday so we could get around the house.
