Especially from Michigan coming to Arizona," Michael Burcusel said. "I didn’t expect to see all of this. I thought it was all desert."Some pups, like Daisy and Guss, are seeing the snow for the first time and are feeling a little more at home. Kids were filling this October Sunday with memories of building and naming snowmen.The countdown is on until the ski lifts open. For now, the Arizona Snowbowl is counting more than inches early on in the season.
