Hurray!!!
I'm in a winter wonderland
It's really coming down too- some 8cm so far. I am so lucky to live in edmonton right now.
This topic is for stories about snowfall. Snowed in, first snowfall, that time when it was really special.
I'll start off then.
Back in 7th grade it was the middle of winter and it hadn't snowed in a long time (close to a month i think). I was with my friends at my house playing sonic the hedgehog 2 and basically wasting my christmas vacation away in electronic bliss. At about 4PM it began to snow, then harder and harder. Big white fluffy flakes that swallowed the sky. We didn't notice until about 6pm and by then there was almost a foot on the ground. We ran outside and I looked into the sky, feeling the flakes touch down on my face, melting into lukewarm tears that ran down my face and into my shirt. We went back inside and got suited up- the whole meal deal getting everything on. It kept snowing all night and we played until it was way past dark. Our tracks would get covered over it seemed as soon as we moved from the spot. I remember just looking at our deck light and the snow falling past it suddenly flaring out of the darkness then being swallowed back up as soon as it passed the light.
It was a great night.
