LET IT SNOW

The child and I have spent a lot of time wandering about Puyallup in the snow the past couple days—walking, sledding, playing in some of Puyallup's parks, drinking hot chocolate at Forza.


(1) Snow at night, Puyallup Riverfront Trail.



Clockwise from upper left: (2) residential street; (3) in Pioneer Park facing Puyallup City Hall; (4) giant snowflakes adorning the side of Puyallup City Hall; and (5) Puyallup's live Christmas tree in Pioneer Park and the Puyallup Public Library.


(6) "Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds." But snow and subfreezing temperatures did mean that our mail carrier wore snow pants and a winter jacket over his customary shorts!



Clockwise from upper left: (7) beneath the Puyallup River Bridge; (8) phase 1 of the Puyallup Riverfront Trail; (9) Mount Rainier; and (10) phase 2 of the Puyallup Riverfront Trail.


(11) Snow in Puyallup Skatepark.
