Steve,
We haven't had a white Christmas that I can remember. Yesterday was one of the nicest days we have had in months. Temperature was almost on 70 and NO wind at all. Spent the day walking around in the yard with a short sleeve shirt on picking up small limbs and stuff the wind has blown in over the past few weeks.
I received a package from my cousin in Arkansas, ( The Ozarks ), and he sent me some old pictures that my Mother had sent to his. Some showed one of my brothers and me out in the snow which was about 2 feet deep and really made me think about how I missed some of the simple things in life that I had as a kid. The breakneck fast rides on our sleds, going across frozen ponds and just simple toys.
