Snow in the Desert

Well, not really. Jerusalem has been getting snow since recorded history. The word 'sheleg' already dates back to Isiah  (and maybe older - feel free to chime in if there's older biblical references to snow). [Actually, I looked back and it dates back as far as the book of Exodus, referring to Moses' hand being white like snow at the scene of the Burning Bush]

Here's our snow day in pictures.

 Our parking lot

Our car

 Buildup on our balcony

 View from Zohara's window, looking east

 My favorite shot - the view from our balcony at roughly 8 a.m.

 Getting ready to rock out with our snowsuits out!

 Snow day!

 Winter wonderland

 Car driving wrong way in traffic circle near our house!

 A serious storm!
