Once upon a time It just got cold and windy. Now we have felt temperatures Wind chills Bombogenesis. Snow days used to be fun. NO SCHOOL…..YIPPEE!!! We would ZOOM down the hills On whatever would slide Sleds, plastic “spinny” things, Occasionally socks Would replace wet mittens Plastic bags would go over shoes To allow easy entry to galoshes. ((Mom’s were magicians back then)) Snowballs were legal. Snowmen were called….SNOWMEN. Snow angels caused no controversy. ((Well, truth be told, I made a few snow devils)) ((used one of the snowman’s arms for the horns)) For homework…. Tomato soup, Ritz crackers A blanket and Howdy Doody. ((Damn, am I old)) John G.
