December 17, 2020. Madison, Mississippi. Snow.

For tne children, there is nothing better than snow. For older people, snow is not so good. Right now in Liverpool, Nova Scotia, it is snowing hard. And it is supposedto snow all night. By morning they should have over a foot of snow. What fun for the children and the parents too. George told me this afternoon that he and Shiela were taking the grandchildren sledsing after work. Most Canadian schools are not cancelled due to snow so I will be interested to hear tomorrow whether or not the kids will have a holiday from school. Of course all the anow must be shovelled. it is the law. In 2017, Jackson had 4 inches of snow. it loked pretty. People just stay home and wait until the snow melts. But that does not work in Nova Scotia. Soon the freezing rain would make a hardcrust on top of the snow. When that happens, no one can walk or drive. So by morning, the roads will be plowed and the sidewalks shovelled. And life goes on. Nothing better than a big snow, especially when you are a kid!
