Snow in the Sacramentos

It started snowing early evening yesterday, and it snowed pretty much through the night.  We awoke to a couple of inches of the white stuff this morning, and I discovered--when I took Becca outside--that there's a layer of crusty ice beneath the blanket of snow.  This will preclude a hike today as driving conditions are almost certainly treacherous, and I have to navigate along windy mountain roads to get to a trailhead.  Becca will be disappointed, but she'll probably get to play with her canine buddies later today.
