My cousin who grew up in Florida saw snow for the first time when he was a teenager and came North for my grandfather's funeral. It was January, and there were only a few inches on the ground, which we thought was not very impressive, but he was QUITE impressed. Then it snowed the day we they were leaving, so he got to see some fall, and was very excited. His mom, my Aunt Delle, who moved to Florida to ESCAPE the snow, just couldn't wait to get back to the warmth - and her horses.

To each his or her own, I guess! We hads rain the other day, so don't have much left, but I'm hoping for more soon.

Right before Helen and I moved here, I told her we would drive until we found snow. We lived in Columbia, SC at the time, and she was 4. We drove to Greenville, kept going, started seeing snow on the ground outside of town, but we kept going, and I remember her saying "find more", and we ended up driving to the top of the mountain to a place called Caesar's Head, where there is a state park, and we tromped through one foot of snow. Had a wonderful time, then turned around and drove all the way back to Columbia with our wet jeans and shoes! That was one of the most fun and memorable "trips" I can ever remember taking with her!!! And she doesn't even remember it, except through the stories I tell!!

Logan, I guess you are just going to have to repeat it maybe now? Then you will have a new memory together that you can both enjoy.

I heard it was snowing a little in Cookville, but that is so far away from us. I would rather get snow than ice, we got ice one year here and the electric went off, some people stayed without electricity for about two weeks. We were lucky, ours was back on before morning, funny we lived on one side of the road and the people that lived on the other didn't have electric. I guess it just depended on what transformer you were getting your electric from.

Send me some snow too!!!!!!

Logan, we sometimes *drive until we hit snow* as well! Some winters, my dad will wake up one morning and say *Get ready! We're going to drive drive drive........until we hit snow!* So we get in the car, and drive, until we hit snow! Its so much fun, especially when we start getting to colder areas, we'll see small patches of snow.........and as we go further, the snow will get deeper, and deeper, and deeper. If we drive far enough, sometimes we hit snow that is several feet deep. Then we get out, and walk in it.............and it will be so deep that it goes past our knees and we can't walk! LOL! The best part is sledding! I LOVE sledding! I do wish it snowed in my town, because I would love to see my neighborhood covered in white, but still, we are fortunate to be close enough to snow, to get up and drive to snowy areas when we feel like it!

Oh Poppy we were coming back from a furniture market in High Point, North Carolina, one time and I was driving, (I am bad on ice, I drive like there is no ice or snow, I tend to forget it is there), we decided to go through Maggie Valley and on over into Cherokee, North Carolina, as we got closer it was snowing a lot, and I ended up following a snowplow up the mountain and down the mountain into Cherokee, we were going to stay but they were calling for more snow so we decided we better get out of there and not get caught in the snow, that mountain gets closed down sometimes during the winter, and back then Monteagle mountain was really trecherous. So we left and come back here to hick town, mean home. LOL. It was so beautiful there with all that snow, I would have stayed. Would have been nice.

Lin my daughter is in PA right now, don't know what part though, but she is playing in the snow. I wish she would come home, I miss my baby.
