} i 1d & We had snow in the valley, snow everywhere last week. It was a rare and beautiful happening. Our community looked just like the picture ona Christmas card. The young people of the area especially liked it for it meant no school for at least one day. The high schoolers went on Thursday and stayed home Friday and the grade schoolers stayed home Thursday and went to school on Friday. Either way most of the mothers had somebody home both days. Inever saw so many snowmen and snow forts, and the snowballs were still flying as late as Sunday and beyond that as long as there was enough snow to pack together. What amazes me about the snow is the fact that the kids can be drenched to the skin in a half hour but-no one will admit that they are cold.
