Packers vs. Falcons

On the drive up to Green Bay on Monday for the Packers-Falcons game, the snow started between Sheboygan and Manitowoc, Wisconsin. It was a wet, heavy snow since the temperature was around 35 degrees. 

That’s the glow of Lambeau Field off in the distance, as seen from our parking spot a few blocks to the West of the stadium.
