It was all the way down to Forrest Falls yesterday, the snow line.
We went up for a Sabbath afternoon adventure, me in my chacos, William in his velcroed Tevas and everyone else dressed for a leisure cruise through the dusty, deserty hills.
Two subarus with Idaho plates, tuned into Prairie Home Companion for in-car entertainment -- one would think that we'd be prepared.
Think again.
We were anything BUT prepared for snow in April, in Southern California.
Nonetheless, we enjoyed the snow. We tromped around the creek bed, threw snow balls, got all the jitters out. Then my toes went numb and the snow seemed to get warmer. Only when I got back into the car, hot car-generated heat blasting on my skin did I realize how cold my toes were. Then they hurt for a bit, began to tingle, and then our leisurely Sabbath afternoon returned.
