It's the First Snow of the Year

The first winter blast has finally hit Muskoka. Accumulations of heavy snow from 1cm to 8cm deep, blanketed cottage country this morning. The ground is still not yet frozen, so most of the snow evidence melted away by noon, but it was still a stern reminder that winter is on its way. After an unseasonably warm and dry November, the morning of December 1st felt more like, last few brave island cottagers hoping to get to the cottage one more time before the hard freeze up, are going to have to move quickly.
The winter weather is supposed to continue through the weekend and then we are on to a white Christmas in Muskoka!
