Having lived most of my life in the Midwest, I have seen many a White Christmas. Now that we are southern transplants these past 7 years, I've grown accustomed to mild temps and sunny days during the winter. I never expected to see a White Christmas down here in South Carolina, and thought the weather predictions for snow on Christmas Day were just too funny. The laugh is on me. For the first time in 47 years, 3 inches fell in the Upstate area of South Carolina.
This unusual occurrence has me wondering about the whole art of possibility. Mother Nature demonstrates that possibility has an expansive quality that defies limits. I am reminded to notice how my thinking can both stunt, and enhance, what I believe is possible.
Ohhh Deb, your photo is picture perfect. :)
Here in Northern Ohio we have had our share of *snow* this season.
We are over 70 inches here in Twinsburg and it's only mid January.
I really do feel for folks in the South when the snow comes because
most cities are just not prepared with equipment and such.

Deb, two weeks after this photo, the Upstate area got hit with another 6-9 inches of snow, followed by 6 days of temps in the low teens at night. It took about 6 days before the ice went away on the secondary streets because we are not equipped for this kind of weather - the "winter storm of the decade" it was called!
