I dreamt it was snowing. I miss snow.

I’ve seen snow only once. When I was eight

it is truly beautiful

but deadly too

and at the same time it's a protective blanket for the soil

I miss seeing snow, not dealing with it.

snow is nice if you have a warm house, warm clothes, a good car and don't have to shovel it

I still remember one particular bad snowfall, I was driving home very slowly with the plow behind me.

Couldn't even pull over to let them pass.
