It's Too Early for Snow!

Today is merely the 23 of October. And it's cold. I came home from grocery shopping around noon, and it was only 35 degrees. The worst part about it was that while out, I saw quite a few cars with several inches of snow on them! It hasn't snowed here yet, at least not enough to stick and be noticable. I guess it must have snowed a bit higher up. I don't know. I am just not ready for snow; it seems way too early. But I am just a West Coast "flatlander," so what do I know? Still, I feel a little off put by snow. Last winter, my first winter here, it was a lot more exciting and quaint somehow.
