A Great Day for Kids and Dogs
The kids across the street were contemplating a snowman today. The snow sticks well but it is not really deep. It’s just above freezing, and this morning the snow came down so quickly you could barely see.
When I came home, the main streets were fine and so was the one in front of our house. However, the side street that our driveway faces, is only 2 blocks long and does not get any traffic or attention. I slid right past the driveway and had to back up to get in properly! Whoops.
It’s not a good day for postal mail carriers (in my area they walk from house to house) or bicycle commuters. The kids maybe make up for that a bit. They are so pleased!

Oh, snow! I guess you’ll be making friends with your heater again/? ;-)
We’ve had a very grey day here in the Bay area and there is the possibility of rain! Well showers at least…

One of the joys of teaching first grade was the first snowfall. Of course the kids noticed it. I would take a break with the kids so that we could go to the windows and see our first snowfall. In one of the first days of snow, I would get out the blue paper and they could make snow pictures with white chalk and crayons on the blue paper. I also taught them how to make six sided snowflakes. We thought we were special that we could do that.
