Snowy 8

We awoke to snow on the ground this morning!!! Crazy Maine spring! Sam was all excited to "walk on her own" out to the car so that she could walk through the snow. She kept saying "I not sinking" as she walked along :-) Yup, it was snow alright, but only a dusting.

I headed over to the Commons after dropping her off at daycare. I hadn't run there in a while, and figured a flat trail run would probably do my creaky legs some good. I crunched along through the snow, enjoying the quiet woods as flakes fell. The snow clung to the pine needles and the early red buds on the trees, and the green and red lichen along the trail's edge looked pretty peeking up through the white snow. I got in a nice, slow 8 miles before heading home.
