3 for Thursday

1. What are 3 things you love about the snow?
- It's pretty when it's falling.
- A bland lanscape is turned a beautiful white.
- You can slide and play in it until it melts away.

2. What are 3 things you hate about the snow?
- The temps are very low, so it's very cold.
- When the snow melts, it leaves behind dirty, yucky, slush.
- You have to be bundled up and look like the little brother in 'A Christmas Story'!

3. What are the 3 funnest/funniest moments you can remember that happened on a snow day?
- I don't live where it snows, so I have to drive to it. Early in our relationship, my spouse and I went to the San Gabriel mountains in search of snow. All we found was a lot of packed ice and we laughed at our find. We had a terrific picnic lunch, though.
- One February it began snowing when my spouse and I were out hiking in the San Gregonio mountains. It was a wonderful surprise and a memorable day.
- One early spring day we drove the San Gabriel mountains, admiring the trees in bloom and excitedly anticipating the warm weather that was sure to follow. I don't recall what elevation we were at, but we came upon a lot of snow. We thought it had all melted and were improperly dressed and unprepared. We around some. Through a few snowballs. And slid on our tennis shoes!
