It was 5:00 o'clock when I woke up Saturday morning. I looked out through the sliding doors in the living room out into the back yard. A flashback placed me in Rochester N.Y. where I spent my childhood.
I could hear it loud and clear. The voice on the radio said " The heavy snow storm that fell over the city last night has left the roads impassable .. " Come on say it ! As all the kids in my neighborhood , I awaited impatiently to hear the magic words.." All the schools will be closed today" YES !
But as the geese made their morning call, I cameback from memory land and realized that it was Saturday and there was no school anyway,so half the fun was gone.
Although SC panics once a year when the snow covers the ground, I knew that it wouldn't be long before the sun would come out and the beautiful white carpet would start to melt. I was going to enjoy it while it lasted and with my eyes open, try to relive my bundled up days up in the north.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! As long as it melts by the afternoon that is!
