What started out as a prediction for a light dusting in our area turned into a significant snowstorm throughout most of North Georgia. Nearly ten inches of white powder fell in Franklin Springs on the night of March 1st. By the time that night fell on our area, most homes and businesses were left in the dark…thanks to the fallen trees and their limbs that snapped power lines to roughly 60,ooo electric utility customers. Though our house had to endure one night of candles and flashlights, it was a walk in the park compared to a few places that did not have electricity until four days later. All in all, it was an exciting event in one way or another for many people. It also gave me a great opportunity to take a few snapshots of the blessed weather event. Hope you enjoy the following photos. (Click on the thumbnails to see a full-size image.)
