Hee Hee

My daughter asked me early this morning, "Mom, why are all the roofs in the neighborhood bluish white?  Where did all the brown roofs go?" At the moment I was preoccupied and thought she was dreaming things.  Later, after the sun had been out for a bit, she looked out the window again and said, "What is all that wet stuff??"  I looked where she was pointing and I burst out laughing, "That's FROST!!"  LOL  We have true desert kids.  I am reminded of Emily two years ago stating, "I hate trees!"  Poor little souls! ...But just about the time I want to be rescued from this hot desolation, I remember the finer points about living in the desert.  Being unfamiliar with frost is one of them!

    You guys need to come up here for a fieldtrip and unit study on Winter. I'm sure you can write it off as educational expense.

    Good try, Mr. weatherman.

    A couple days ago, it was -13 with wind chill factor of -32. Good ol' dependable Midwest.

    Trees are undesirable for a number of reasons.


    1. Leaves that need raking in the fall.

    2. Leaves that need raking in the fall.

    3. Leaves that need raking in the fall.

    4. Leaves that need raking in the fall.


    Raking in a yard of rocks would really be a non pleasurable outdoor activity. Ranks right up there with mowing grass.

    That is too funny about the frost!


    I don't know if I'll be around much next week, so I just wanted to stop by and say that I pray that your family has a WONDERFUL Christmas and a very blessed new year!


    Love,

    Michelle

    Man I'd trade the frost for the freezing rain we got (lost power for 68 hours - out side temps were between 20 - daytime, and -4 night time) followed by not one but 2 snow storms that left us with a combined snow fall of 3 feet!!! Our dog is tunneling outside to go "Potty" And she is a 65 pound lab!! How about a field trip! I keep looking at my list of "Why I love NH". Have a wonderful Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year - May you find peace, love, joy, laughter and forgiveness in all you do. Lynn Marie
