January 2013 Just Your Average Snow Day In grade school‚ snow days were the absolute best part of the winter months and living in Missouri promised at least a few per year. One particular day in third grade stands out in my mind as the best snow day of all. Any kid could tell you how a snow day begins; waking up at the regular time and groggily recalling the forecast from the night before‚ we would run to the window and peer out to see the blinding white sight of new snow covering the ground.

Do not be disillusioned though‚ as one’s love for snow can just as quickly
