I have always enjoyed snow days. As a kid it was great to go out in play for an entire day. As an adult, any unexpected break in a welcomed one. When it snows I still have the urge to run out and play. Sledding has to be one of my all time favorite activities. Snow angels, snow forts and the always inevitable snowball fight are just too much fun to resist. Unfortunately, not too many retain that desire to play like that in the snow. They move on to ski slopes, or just remain indoors. While I enjoy skiing/snowboarding, and staying warm by a fire, I thoroughly enjoy playing in the snow.
This area does not get a lot of snow. It will get frigid cold and have freezing rain, but very little snow. Ice can be fun, but it does not excite the child inside me. Mostly, I just see it as an increased risk. Whether it be walking into work, or behind the wheel, the chances of something bad happening are greater. Especially with some of the bozos around here.
And then it ends,
Skate
