It has been 40 years since we have had snow like this in Oregon! We had over a foot of snow on the valley floor that lasted for about two weeks in December!
Growing up, I remember having three feet of snow where we lived in rural Western Oregon, but I have had a hard time convincing my husband and friends of my true stories! No, I did not walk to school through a snow storm in three feet of snow, but we had alot of fun playing in the snow.
Because our snow in December was such a big deal, there were stories of similar snows in past years and I have finally convinced my husband and friends that this has happened before and I wasn't just telling stories.
What a great way to spend Christmas and think of Christmases past!
