Snow!?!?

Ok...I know Denver gets snow...but on October 5th?  Last year when I was out here, we got snow, but now until later in November!  Pretty amazing!  We woke up this morning and Ms. Karen said that there was snow on the ground...not alot, just a little bit on the grass, but still!  They were saying that they think this is a new record, it beat the old one by a few days!
