Oh Janie and Honchey - I just love that block! WOW!!!
You guys talking about snow just blows me away. The last time it snowed here was in 1949, when I was 7 years old (you realize I live on the California coast). I was so excited. I remember my mom letting me stay home from school to play in the snow! Of course, I did not have any snow type clothing, so I did not stay outside long.
My family used to take a yearly trip "To the Snow"!!!!! We drove 4 hours and would spend Presidents Weekend at a cabin. Such fun times, when our kids were teenagers! Actually we can see the snow (which is about 2 hours away)on the mountains from our town. But no snow here in all these years!
I just love to sit in a cabin and watch the snow coming down. And it such fun to wake up in the morning and see how much has accumulated on the porch railing overnight. Those were very special times, as we did not have to "live" in the snow, just so enjoyed visiting it once a year.
