Heading north on I-81 to Woodstock on a wintry day ...

Snow clouds hang dark over I-81 in the Shenandoah Valley.

... no, not Woodstock, NY ... but Woodstock, VA, located an hour north of Staunton in Shenandoah County.

Augusta County had on-and-off snow flurries all Monday and the sky was dark and wintry looking when Trixie Averill picked me up in the late afternoon ... just two wild and crazy girls heading to Woodstock to prepare for 75 people who had signed up for another fabulous Americans For Prosperity townhall meeting. The snow flurries continued as we headed north on the interstate with the sky growing darker and we could see snow squalls on the mountains to our east and west ... and then it hit!

Wheeee .... snow was coming down heavy and we enjoyed the big white flakes for as long as they lasted ... and then it was back to on-and-off flurries that continued throughout the evening. The mountains and western counties were expecting 5-7" of snow but Augusta County had only a dusting Tuesday morning. With daytime temps in the lower 30s, it certainly was a reminder that winter is not far away....
