SNOW in RENO

When I woke up this morning (at 11:30), it was 38 degrees outside. Within thirty minutes it was starting to sprinkle snow. An hour and a half later and you could makes snowballs where-ever you went. It full on snowed and it's only beginning of October. Of course I wasn't content to just passively watch the snow. Drove up the mountains next to the campus and was rewarded with a Jeep caked in mud (both inside and out). The Jeep did pretty well until I lost all the traction in my tires because the threads were packed with mud. Had to come down to clean them off. Here's some of the pictures of the venture.
