7 inches of snow fell in Greenville last Monday. Schools were closed all week, and most of us were experiencing severe cabin fever. Temperatures hit 50 yesterday, and I hoped the Swamp Rabbit Trail would be passable today. In most cases it was, but there was still a lot of snow on the ground. I picked up the trail around 10:30. Here are some pictures.
