All right, so the snow isn’t so bad. It’s actually quite pretty. We were just unprepared for it. As usual. The lawn chairs, picnic tables, bbq grill, etc. were left out, what with the extended indian summer and all. And now all such summer accoutrements are covered in snow. The little man and I had a good time playing *around* these obstacles. I found some gloves, hats and snowboots, then dug out the sled so we could go cruising down the modest hill in our backyard. One of the neighbor kids popped by too, and got the ball rolling for a snowball war, the likes of which the little man had never before seen. The boy was wearing a grin from ear to ear. Now I reckon the time is right for some hot chocolate.
