First Snow - Upstate NY

So the weather folks were right this time. We actually had a light dusting of snow soon after midnight. It's slowly melting now, and very sunny, so everything is glistening and glossy, but this is what the back deck looked like at sunrise.

Earliest snow in Upstate NY I think they said. I usually happily anticipate the first snow {like in November, around Thanksgiving} but this is a bit too early in the season for me....
