Just had a couple of days off for SNOW! That NEVER happens here. It was awesome! We had snowball fights, built snowmen, made snow cream... I love acting like a kid! I haven't had school cancelled for snow in SO long. Anyone else out for snow?

I wish I was, we haven't had a snow day in so long. We always, every year, at least three or four times a winter got snow days, but we haven't even got snow once this year....

I haven't had a snow day in a very long time. We were pretty lucky last year because we didn't have much snow. This year it has snowed quite a few times, but it isn't that bad. The cold however has been keeping me indoors this weekend. It feels like it is 10 degrees with the wind chill. BRRRR!

I made me a giant snow cone, then pissed in it, then ate it...

Oh wait, no I didn't. I saw that in the Jackass movie.

I live in Tennessee. Snow is a rare thing. Snow deep enough to play in only comes once ever few years it seems. I do remember in high school hearing, "We're cancelling school for the remainder of the day because Ms. Anthony (the principal) saw a snowflake out her window" over the intercom. No exaggeration!!! Sad, ain't it?

I wish I was! I saw snow for the first time about a week ago. It was the most awesome thing ever! In my area it didn't stick to the ground as much as it did in the surrounding area, so I didn't get to make a snowman !

aephi alum promised me in my other snow thread she'd send enough snow my way to make a whole snow family, so I'm really looking forward to that

What's snow cream?

MTSUGURL · #8 01-20-2003, 03:42 AM

Snow cream - Mix alot of snow, a little milk, some vanilla and sugar, and enjoy! Only do this right after it snows. Making snow cream with my mom is one of my favorite memories from childhood.

Snow cream sounds very interesting. Thanks for explaining.

Our classes opened two hours late on Friday. That sucked dirty ass hairs.

Thank you Optimist Prime for that LOVELY picture.

We're supposed to get 3 more inches tonight. That of course means they will probably shut everything down again. Whoo hoo!

Rats! I bet that Atlanta won't get a thing!

a snow day what's that?? I've never heard of such a thing. You are actually serious that some people can't handle a little snow?? I mean we're freezing to death up here in the middle of Pennsyltuky, but I don't think we've had a snow day in a long time, the person who could correct me if I'm wrong is 33girl since she was at clarion before me.

Live in New England for a few winters, and you'll dread the phrase "snow day"! I grew up down South, and I thought it would be so great to have random days off because of the snow (Southerners aren't used to snow, so cities have to essentially shut down to prevent accidents other problems). It hasn't snowed here in a while (although it is fun to play in it, it's not fun to slip on black ice!), but it has been wicked cold. I can't wait till it gets above freezing.

I've lived with snow my whole live. Growing up in Erie, PA we get all the lake effect snow you could dream of and more. You know when the Weather Channel is talking about lake effect snow over the Great Lakes it means erie is getting more snow, we get a little less than Buffalo usually.
