I live in Northwest Indiana and have had to much it already!<BR/>Last night we had a snowstorm mixed with ice. The driving conditions were bad this morning so I wound up going into work late. <BR/><BR/>Our winter started early this year too. It started right at the beginning of November with a snowfall of 12 inches.

It is a fun novelty, but it can create hassles because we aren't used to it. Schools and businesses close, and traffic snarls. You see, we get a lot of ice along with the snow. Still, I like to see it because it is so pretty.cheryl chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09518179090170838046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36709846.post-73794373299573127532008-12-19T09:33:00.000-08:002008-12-19T09:33:00.000-08:00The best thing about snow is that it's a good excu...The best thing about snow is that it's a good excuse to stay home and read a good book.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16392692656456938856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36709846.post-46148406056127198832008-12-17T21:21:00.000-08:002008-12-17T21:21:00.000-08:00No snow in my part of the world I'm afraid, Donna....No snow in my part of the world I'm afraid, Donna. And while I love it for its novelty value (the whole 2 times I've ever seen it), it would be way too bizarre to have a white Christmas. How would we play back yard cricket? And what about surfing at the beach and gobbling watermelon until the juice runs down your chin? (Frozen watermelon juice hanging off one's chin is such a bad look!)<BR/><BR/>Michelle Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12586192358963827660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36709846.post-26013586823716610382008-12-17T15:39:00.000-08:002008-12-17T15:39:00.000-08:00Oh Gina, thank you!
