Halloween Snow

We had a Jellyfish and Scuba Diver visit us in Brookdale during a Halloween snowstorm. The temperature was just below the freezing point but it accumulated to where you could "track a rabbit". It came down through much of the afternoon. Their visit was timely since a group from Kindergarten were a bit late in getting here. A crowd of residents and staff had gathered in the Dining room so Jack (the Scuba Driver) and I made the rounds to the delight of all. Other youngsters also came in during supper to visit relatives and for all  of us to enjoy.  The kids had some
competition from the adults in their costume displays. The Snowman was a fellow from Brookdale as is the lady who dressed as a witch. She is a lady that once lived as a neighbor of our house. My Dad used to say that we could expect the number of snows during the winter that matched the date on the calender when the first snow fell (enough to track a rabbit). I don't ever remember getting our first one on the 31st. Hope it doesn't hold true. We spent our first full day inside Brookdale since we moved the first of September.
