A little around the holidays for pretty then it can go away for the year. Didn't you already have a bit of snow this year?

It was four years ago and my dad had just passed. I didn't want my mother sitting alone in her apartment so Mrs. C. and I risked our lives to drive up a hill to visit her.

I like a couple of snowfalls any given year that consist of 7 or 8 inches of snow. Enough to be pretty but it melts a few days later. We are still in a drought here in Kansas so I have no idea if we will get snow this winter or not. I am keeping my fingers crossed.Cheryl P.http://artofbeingconflicted.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740338215172190519.post-1177393585080800422012-12-18T11:57:20.160-06:002012-12-18T11:57:20.160-06:00Well, where I live we never get snow!

We got 60 feet of snow the 1st year I was there and then 20 feet by the time I left the second year. I love to look at snow but I do not want to live where it snows ever again!<br />It sure is pretty though, makes everything look amazing.<br /><br /><br /><br />Here's your click ...........<br /><br /><br />Love and Blessings,<br />AngelBabyKathleen Barcahttp://www.facebook.com/kathleen.barcanoreply@blogger.com
