Snow Day Redux

As predicted, yesterday's snow day never amounted to much. But it was pretty while it lasted. Here are a few bonus shots, several of them snapped from the cozy confines of a bus. And despite the fact that my kids put spoons in the freezer, forks under their pillows, wore their pajamas inside out, and placed their stuffed animals on the window sill, there's no snow or ice delay today.


Potted plants shiver in the wind.

I've never heard of those traditions. Are they French?

No, just your garden variety American silliness, part of the oral tradition handed down at recess and on the school bus.
