A Perfect Snow

 In the wee hours of New Year's morning it began to snow. It snowed until after lunch. We ended up getting about 5 inches. And we needed to go nowhere. Most people needed to go nowhere. Even the fast food places open late on New Year's Day. So the snowy streets were pretty empty for those who had to get out. Perfect. Not too much, but enough to make it beautiful out.
The next day was perfect for snowman building, but Miss Adventure and I were too late getting started. It had gotten too cold for the snow to stick, so we made tracks and snow angels and threw snowballs at each other that disintegrated before they ever reached their target in the still darkness.
On Sunday, it grew warm enough again, so we went to work before the sun went down.
And today, it has been so warm that he will soon fall.
A perfect snow.
