Playing Hooky!

Mar
7

We took a day off school–and writing–to play in the snow one last time. We don’t have snow here anymore, but they have snow here–where they make snow–about an hour and a half away. Living near ski resorts is a new thing for us. We still think snow is exciting. Mostly. When our pipes aren’t freezing.

Snowtubing with teenagers is….. Extreme snowtubing, LOL. Not content with simply sledding down on their tube, they were taking advantage of the thin crowds, virtually no lines, to go way back and take running leaps onto their tubes at the top of the hill. And somehow they convinced me to do this, too. Which might explain why I am so sore… It was really fun, though!!

This one had to try snowboarding, too. Mere tubing was not exciting enough after a couple of hours.

After, he said, “But it looks easy on TV…..”

Then we went out to eat and drove home. Fun day! We might do it again next year….. I might be recovered by then…..

Back to regular life. I’m trying to finish a proposal this week, and it’s supposed to be in the 60s here soon!!! I already planted some herbs inside to get ready for spring…. I’m going to start some tomatoes and flowers next. I’m so glad there’s no REAL snow here!!!!! What about you? Planting any seeds inside yet?

The Slanted Little House

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....
