Well the snow is pretty much all gone. It was pretty while it lasted though. I thought the way it was snowing yesterday evening that maybe it would keep doing that all night and we’d get enough snow to use the sled this morning! No such luck. Around 8:30pm the snow changed over to rain and everything turned to slush. But hey! We did have a little bit of snow!

I’ll try to get some pics up soon.

In the meantime, here is the forecast for the area of VA that the Blue Ridge Dryland Challenge will be held, with the days I’ll be there in bold. From: http://www.weather.gov/view/prodsByState.php?state=tn&prodtype=zone
