Snow.

It continues to snow here. I haven't seen a whiteout like this since I was little. I used to dream of blizzards like this when I was a kid because I wanted to get out of school. I blame my fascination of snow on movies like White Christmas which taught me that all the magic of holidays came from a soft blanket of white covering all the dirt and allowing us to snuggle up indoors...
I share with you the Snow Song. One of Irving Berlin's great masterpieces...it made me want to go sledding and drink cocoa all year long...
I hope it can cheer you up if you're trapped in a snowbank...and get me in the spirit as I do work here and think about trudging back home in the cold.
