Dear Diary,

It snowed last night – a whole inch! Cool! All the big trees have white snow on the tips of their branches and the railings are piled with it, too. The bushes down by the creek look like a fairyland. Only one problem… it's too dry to make a snowman OR a snowball. What's with that? Even the kids at the school next door can't make them, but they're having fun throwing snow at each other.

It's been over 30 years since KidsGranny has seen snow and it's the first time for Kitty. He looks so funny walking in it (so does KidsGranny, but don't tell her I said so). Kitty takes a step, shakes his leg, licks his paw, takes another step, shakes that leg, and so on. (Just so you know, KG doesn't do THAT!) Kitty looks a little lost 'cause he can't find his favorite spots. (KG does NOT look lost.)

Update: Well, that was fun while it lasted. The sun came out and it is melting. There are still big patches of the snow though. Kitty is one happy cat again. ^.^

Lucky Bums

All in all, I'd say that was just enough of a teaser to make me want more… soon! Maybe next time there will be enough snow that I can try snowboarding on that Lucky Bums kid's beginner snowboard I saw the other day. We do have a little hill - more like a slope, I guess. Wouldn't it be perfect for beginners?
