Snow is something we need here in Idaho to get us through the year. Our irrigation water comes from snow, our drinking water comes from snow, the water in our creeks and streams comes from snow. Without snow, we’d look more like the Sahara desert than heavily irrigated sagebrush farmland.
There’s a bit of snow outside today. We had two or three inches the other day. Now most of it has melted and re-frozen as ice. I’d go to the PO and bank anyway, but it’s Martin Luther King Day, so those establishments are closed.
