The first snowfall for this region was December 26th. Several inches to over a foot blanketed the area. We were hit again a few more times. I have not seen the ground since the first snowfall.

Sleepy Hollow Cemetery in Sleepy Hollow, Westchester County, New York today. Eight years ago today, my grandmother was buried there.
