Snow!!!

Today, the friendly Fedora-cigar man saw me walking by again, this time wearing my snow boots. He muttered in Alemannisch, “Heut isch glatt, na?” which means approximately, “Slippery out today, huh?”

Yes, today was slippery but beautiful. We woke up to a big snowfall yesterday morning, and it has been snowing off and on for the past two days. Yesterday the school celebrated with a snowball fight, and I made a large snowball in the field above the school. Today, I was able to take 2 short walks, enjoying the sunshine as it pried its fingers around the clouds to touch my face with warmth.

Thank you, Lord, for days full of sun and snow!
