One Day of Magic

It snowed in Georgia yesterday. I know, I know, big deal right. Well, here it is a big deal. Our weather, most times, consists of warm, hot, very hot & humid; to rain, cold, and icy snow (heavy on the ice).

Yesterday’s snow was a perfect snow, powdery and wet. It was just right for playing outside. You could sled, build a snow man; or just take a quiet walk all bundled up and listen to the crunch of the snow under your feet. And the quiet, there was a peaceful quiet when you just stood and listened. It’s so quiet you could hear God.

Other places get snow like this all the time. To the point where they pray for the sun to take the powdery stuff away. But here in Georgia, for just one or two days we get to feel the magic. For tomorrow it will be gone and all will be normal: warm, or rainy, or hot, or . . . . Pick your weather report. Your guess is as good as ours.

(The day after is even more magical than the day before.)
