LET IT SNOW...

Boston.com's BIG PICTURE has some amazing pictures to go with this story.  
Here are a few that I liked the best! 

"Winter is arriving in the Northern Hemisphere, bringing chilly winds and heavy snowfall to many regions. In late November, Seattle and Vancouver experienced an early snowstorm, parts of New York State are still digging out of a recent storm, and many parts of Europe are now enduring a deadly cold snap, with temperatures in Poland falling as low as -33C (-27F). People all over are donning their heavy coats and gloves and heading outside to either battle the elements, or find ways to play. Collected here are recent photos from northern areas where winter weather has made an impact, and some of the ways the people and animals are dealing with the changing seasons."

The snow in this one looks like ICE CREAM.
I know it's just dirty snow.... but still... 
there's something about the colour that looks like
 rocky road or something :)
