Like mania from Heaven

Last night was cold. Really cold for March in the desert. I thought, maybe, perhaps, wouldn't it be cool if it snowed?

And guess what? It DID!

Laugh if you must, snowbound people. But snow in my part of the world means run outside and play in it before it melts. NOW! Wake up the kids! Make snowmen! Have snowball fights! Have hot chocolate!

Which we did.

Of course, all snowmen need a scarf:

It was fun while it lasted. By 8:30 am, it was all over.

we are the same here with snow. it's gone as soon as it came. the only difference is, it was a mild winter and no snow. i've been hoping for a march snow, but instead we've got a high of 80 degrees tomorrow.

Oh, Man, that bites. You got that huge ice storm, but didn't get a single snowball out of the deal?

Dude, you've gotta move ; )

At least you get thunderstorms. Hmmm, maybe *I* should move.

Woo! Awesome! We do that in Lubbock, but the snow often lasts a whole day before it's gone :)

Lubbock is an enigma, there's no other way of describing it.
