We know what snow is in Mississippi....but we just don't see it that often. Frozen precipitation is usually in the form of icestorms and sleet. When it snows in Mississippi, Life as we know it stops.....Completely...Mississippi doesn't own a single snow plow...My family has never seen a snow shovel...let alone use one...We try real hard to make snowmen out of the paltry amounts of snow we do get....all in all explain to me what a 'White Christmas'really is...LOL
My daughters have
on their 'snowsmiles'..the year was
1992....and it
snowed just enough to make them happy.
The year,this time,was
1997...quite a few years
between snows wouldn't
you think? This little snowman
was actually about
18 inches tall and served as a centerpeice
on my patio table
until the Southern sun reduced him to
water...a Santa
Claus Hat...some buttons and a few twigs.
Same year...1997...oh
but it was pretty as a post card
while it lasted....*sigh*
Just so you understand...Mississippi
Winters are quite mild
The worse you will
see is an ice storm every few years...
a little sleet...cold
North winds...and every once in a while
a little bit of
magic..*S*...so what are you standing
outside for???
Come on in....get next to the fire..
warm your bones
with a mug of hot chocolate...and
let me tell you
about Mississippi Winters.
