Usually only snows here a few times per year, but we had our first for this winter, yesterday.
I took the opportunity, and had my wife grab a shot of the Dr. Zooch Soyuz. A Russian Soyuz flight in the snow....how fittting!

Talc is a real good idea in the cold. I got lazy and didn't do it on the flight right before this one, and the chute never unfolded. Luckily, no damage. Dusted the chute the next time, and it was flawless.
