Winter--Ohio Style


Everyone warned us about winter storms here. We have been built up to believe they are the worst ever and that the entire town shuts down for storms because they are so terrible. Well, today we got our first taste.

These are the pictures of the kids playing in our first snow of the season.
They had plenty of play time because this was considered bad enough for the schools to have "delay time"--all schools in the area open 2 hours late so that the roads can be cleared and melted for drivers.
I hope you can sense the irony in this entire scenario by these pictures! It never got below 25 degrees! It could be a really long winter if this is all it takes for them to have "delay time"

Tonights storm is supposed to be bad enough to cancel school tomorrow. That has everyone in a snit because it is finals week and they may have to go on Monday (the 1st day of the break) to make up their exams!
