| I Love Winter |

| Here in Louisiana we don't get to enjoy too much cool weather. Being a Yankee, I miss it terribly. I say this because we are enjoying some cool weather now. I love the lightness of the air, the skip in the step...almost feel like I could run a little faster, farther, and harder. I love winter time. I love the Christmas season. It is awesome to be able to step back from the fast pace this world demands us to run and enjoy the smell of the flowers. I love winter time. I remember as a kid building snow forts and riding sleds until my hands, feet, and nose lost feeling. I remember shoveling snow for the people in my neighborhood for $5 a driveway splitting it 10 ways and always making enough to stop at the local restaraunt and enjoy a king's meal. I remember huddling close to the radio and praying for delays and cancellations. I remember my oldest brother telling me why I can't eat yellow snow. Memories are awesome and this time of year I often find myself taking trips down those roads. Who would have thought I would now be where I am doing what I am doing. I love winter. |
