    Unreal

    Of course the camera was left at home....anyway, I left Lake Linden to head to Keweenaw county to check out the snow as I only have about 4-5 inches here in Northern Houghton County.. Once I hit the county line and got up to Allouez or so it was almost a WHITE OUT.. I would have to say that...
