Snowstorms in March
“The weather channel predicted snow over night, it hadn’t started by the time you went to bed. Morning comes, you lay there with your eyes closed for a minute. That rumble outside, is that a plow? You jump out of bed with the question in your mind “what did we get?” Throw open the curtains and look out on a world of white. Everything is covered with snow. “I wonder how much we got? I wonder how much Keene got?” (the next town over and your travel destination for work this morning). Waking up to an overnight snow storm is like getting a Christmas present you don’t have to unwrap, and after you admire your gift, you call your friends to see what their gift was, is it as wonderful as yours?” Ok, so that would be how it plays out in December, January, maybe even in February. But March? Look out the window at a snow covered March morning and think “Rats.”
