First Snow of Winter 2004 First SnowWe awoke to the first significant snow in North Platte for winter 2004. To my untrained eye it looks like at least five inches. Now we have to go clean off the drive. I think I'll wait until it actually stops snowing to begin that chore. Both our children went back to school after being home for the Thanksgiving holiday. We are thankful for that. We keep other travelers in our prayers thought.
