To blend with surroundings...
For clothing and military vehicles.
First we will have a look at some history of color.
1611 - Finland - The oldest known color system is credited to astronomer, priest and Neoplatonist Aron Sigfrid Forsius (1569-1637). In his color circle , between the colors Black and White, Red has been placed on the one side since the classical antiquity, and Blue on the other; Yellow then comes between White and Red, pale Yellow between White and Yellow, Orange between Yellow and Red.

Snow is only a few inches. But It's been sticking around 'cause the temps have been low. :)
Still praying for some real snow!!!
But nothing would compare to what you have. :(

Good morning, Pusterfuss...((HUGS))...no snow yesterday, but some roads, like my neighborhood, really need the big blowers because in several places it has become 1 car wide. Are you past the bad weather?

We are looking at light scattered snow for the next couple of days. Then the temps are supposed to fall. Typical Jan-Feb pattern.
