After growing up in real blizzards and where we measure snowfall in feet and not inches and on some days we literally had to take a tractor to school because although the highway was clear our roads we were snowed in… I’m still amused at how even a forecast of snow can cancel school days in advance and how so many get nervous about the roads and the weather. I’ve lived in Georgia for 7 years now and have seen more snow flurries this Winter than ever before. Everyone still talks about the blizzard of ’93 or ’94 and when snow is in the forecast the blizzard from years and years ago seems to always be mentioned in conversation…
This weekend was no blizzard BUT the snow did actually cover the ground and everything did become white. :) It started as a really wet and heavy snowfall and it fell hard for a couple of hours but mostly melted once it hit the ground. This is always fun as it leaves a sheet of ice hidden beneath the surface…
Snow makes the middle of winter so beautiful!
I couldn’t leave Maggie out of this post. She was right out there with me racing and chasing through the snow… trying to figure out where all her grass went! Once she found it was under the snow she proceeded to plow the snow away… literally using her nose! Here she’s practicing her acrobatics and leaping through the air.
