Three snow 'events' ago, (as the weather people call them)
I was standing in line at the grocery store listening to an ancient couple
arguing.
Mildred was vehemently insisting that it was too cold to snow.
Earl was determined to convince her otherwise.
The temp that day was 7 degrees Farenheit.
We received 5 or 6 inches of snow that evening.
It reminded me of the faux snow I used to see in store fronts,
that waxy, soapy whatever they used back in the 60's
The street lights and then the morning sun, made
that dry snow sparkle like mica diamonds.
You could see the flakes as individuals, yet all nestled together.
Today the wind is having fun do its sculpting bit.
