I was heading to the wolf centre that Sunday. Here on Sheppey it was just a grey, damp morning, but snow started as I hit the M25. As I went up over the Downs the snow came down thick and fast... unlike the traffic, which was going slower and slower. Just as I thought I was going to have to spend the morning stuck in a queue, the snow stopped and the traffic started moving again.
At the wolf centre it was a winter wonderland: several inches of wet snow. The members' walk with the wolves was called off and we spent the morning playing with the wolves. It was a morning I'll never forget... and yet back home it was just rain. Talk about lucky!

And a photo:
That was uploaded to Wikipedia - as an experiment to see how far it'd spread.

The answer is, far and wide. I even saw a stylised version on a slot machine called Wolf Run in Vegas! Popped $10 in and won $23... Dakota must have been watching me.
A remarkable day. I'll never forget it as long as I live!
