A coating of moist snow that covered the trees as well as the ground greeted all this morning. It was only about a half inch thick but was sufficient to cause the goose flesh to assert itself along the limbs where slit skirt nighties left them unprotected while a fellow took a peep out of the window. A drizzling rain has followed and today has been about as cheerless as we have had rince early last spring.
