Snow Days































In Wisconsin, we NEVER had snow days. The only time I remember them canceling school was when we got 17" of snow in one day. Down South, they cancel school every time snowflakes start flying. And even more interestingly, they don't wait to see what it is like in the morning, they cancel the night before the snow even starts. We've officially had five snow days this year due to snow, ice and sleet. What an interesting transition it has been for these "northerners"!! When 4-8 inches are expected, the news crews go into "storm mode" and update the weather every 15 minutes. It is a frenzy! They tell us that this has been the 'snow-iest" Winter in years. We have enjoyed sledding down the hill in our backyard. Hopefully you'll enjoy the pictures.

Okay, Jill, I know you well enough to know that you LOVE the storm mode of the news crews. You are jealous you aren't in the studio tracking the storms and keeping viewers abreast of the terrible road conditions. JJ
