White in the garden

What?!?!?
When I took my first look out the window at 5:30am I saw snow and a garden dusted with white. What? The autumnal equinox was just 2 weeks ago!!. The weather forecasters did predict a bit of snow for Saturday morning but this was a surprise. Who would guess a pot of hot peppers would be on ice.
