really has been our first snow.  But what a mistake on the part
of our Weather Bureau!  Which gave not the slightest hope for
a snow storm,  but had predicted fair and colder for the day
and continued fair weather for Thursday.  During the morning
the sky became quite cloudy; the cloudiness became denser and
denser and finally towards 2 P.M. it began to snow and continued
to snow the remainder of the day.  The temperature now apparently
at any rate became somewhat warmer.  After dinner
we explored the little ravine in which we had built our
camp and found it quite enticing.  We remained till nearly
5 P.M. when we decided to start for home.  The ground
now was quite white.  We walked out the S. S. Rd. to
Arbutus then followed the tracks to the Frederick Rd. Sta.
The walk home was very pleasant, so pleasant that when
we arrived at the station instead of taking the car,
we thought we would walk home, at any rate as far 
as Mr. W's home, which we did.  On leaving Mr. W. I
took <s>the</s> a car and arrived home about 8 P.M.  During
the afternoon probably ½ to ¾ in. of snow fell.
