in 1949, it snowed in the san fernando valley and by “snowed” i mean snowed: snow fell and it actually stayed on the ground. my grandfather frank took pictures – an entire roll of pictures, in fact – of the snow that fell around his family’s house in sherman oaks that day and this is one of them.
Because Mom was pregnant with me at the time I was told this story over and over, but I had never seen this picture, so it was definitely Feb or March since I was born the end of April and it probably was raining all that month. Thanks as always. Aunt Helene
