Snow day!

Our new year arrived with a dusting of snow - not that unusual except this is the deep South where snow is a blessed and rare event! Snow days are much anticipated, yet dreaded, because of our inexperience with icy roads and shivery winds. The school kids (some teachers too) slept with their pajamas inside out, put a spoon under their pillows and ice cubes down the toilet to make sure it snowed. Their wishes were granted and school was cancelled. Georgians doned their too thin jackets and searched for gloves, then raced outside to play before it disappeared! A little variety is good for the soul!
