Winter Wonderland?

OK...I do like snow and I'm very thankful that so far this year that most of our storms have been the fluffy stuff and not the heavy wet stuff, however I wouldn't mind if we had a least one straight week without a storm. Last night we got about 5 inches and it's still coming down. I went outside nice and early this morning (6:30) with my 16 yo son to shovel as he needed to be at work by 7:30. we managed to clear the driveway in about 1/2 hour...not bad seeing the snow blower is broken and we were doing the old fashioned shoveling! Only bad thing is that I will have to go out again in an hour or so to shovel again! Oh well...at least I can say I got my exercise for the day.

Anyway, if you live in a snowy area, take a minute to look out at the white fluffy blanket of snow...even though many of us consider it an inconvience, it really is beautiful to see. Makes the world look clean and fresh and ready for the possibilities.
