Have snow....must sled!!!

sledding


One great thing about all of this snow in Omaha is SLEDDING!! If there is still snow over the weekend, then I will go to the major sledding places and try to get a good shot. For now, this is the best sledding place I've seen. I walked up to my friends' house tonight and realized that their entire front stairs (this is only the top half), down to the street, was only half cleared for walking. The snow had been left on the other half, and very obviously had been already well-used as a sledding "hill" leading down to a bump, made by plowed snow, that ideally keeps you from going right into the street. This was one of my favorite things about winter as a kid, and I would have loved to have these stairs to sled down!

Getting snowed in.....



Back to dreary winter weather here in Omaha! I heard that yesterday the temperature got up to a balmy 30 degrees! Today I had to brush snow off the windshield before I could go to lunch. You can definitely tell who the early arrivers were.
