Snow!!!


My Grandma had knee surgery this past week and my mom and I are here in Cleveland to help her out.
          Yesterday, when we left Beaver it was a little overcast and chilly but except for the layer of  unraked leaves skirting the ground, the grass was totally bare. So naturally I was quite suprised when, as we neared my Grandma's exit, the rooftops we passed were dusted with some strange white dust and the ground along the highway was covered in some weird foreign substance that I haven't seen in over six seven months. Yes, believe it or not it was snow!
     When we arrived at the house I got out of the car and reached down to scoop up a handful of the icy flakes which were caked onto the grass. It was the first time I'd touched snow in what felt like years! I'm not quite used to winter yet!
         Today is supposed to be in the 50's though, and the small amount of snow has melted. Now, as I look out the window in the nursing home computer lab, past all the old men watching the Brown's game (most are sleeping), I can see the sun shining bright and clear. Winter isn't here yet, but it sure is on it's way!

  1. Hi Missy,

    Are you sure that someone didn't think that Grandma's house was a large pizzelle and dusted in with powdered sugar?
