Snow. That isnt a good word where i live.

In past history it has snowed, mainly just flurries, less than 10 times. But, on Christmas Day of 2004 it snowed the entire day. We had two inches of snow on the ground. First time ever to snow here on Christmas Day. Everyone everywhere was outside building snowmen, throwing snowballs and singing their hearts out with Christmas jingles. It was the most beautiful and best Christmas any of us have ever had.

Later, months later, we found out, that day, was a sign of what was to come.

Why i had to share this? Well i dont know. I guess its just that every time i hear that word, snow. It makes me think of the best and worst i've known.
