As we say farewell to the last week of January 2021, I decided
to document our snow event of this month.
The weather forecasters predicted we would get snow,
and we definitely did! Snow in Austin January 2021.
I took the prediction seriously and
covered all the containers and tender plants.
Other wise, cleaning up is a real mess and time consuming,
not to mention expense to replace things.
January 10, 2021 will be remembered for record snowfall
in Central Texas with accumulation of up to nine inches.
Fresh fallen snow offered
Austin an unusual winter day.
the day, but temps never dropped to freezing.
By mid afternoon, snow across the city had knocked
out power to thousands of homes, including ours.
The bird bath, usually full of visitors
was all quiet and icy.

Yes, snow in Central Texas creates an event so rare,
that when we do get snow, its something to celebrate.

I've often shared photos of our beloved
Lady Bird Lake with its extensive hike and bide trail.

Local art teacher, Nancy Hoover, took inspiration
from Becky's moody snowy image and created a gorgeous pastel
on gray paper, inspiring her students to create their own version.
I admire how life inspires art! Thank you Becky and Nancy!
