It is the fourth day of October and there is already snow on the ground!
Since I studied abroad last semester, I had not seen snow since the beginning of last February so when I opened my blinds this morning and saw snow, I suddenly became excited. These feelings soon changed as I walked outside and felt the instant chill and wet sludge all over the sidewalks and roads.
However, the winter isn't all bad. There are many fun activities to do in the cold and snow. My favorite by far is to go sledding. When the snow is the perfect density and the weather is not too cold, I grab my purple, plastic sled and hit the hills (golf course dams) near my childhood home. This brings back so many fun memories! When taking a break from the hills, I also love making a few snow angels or maybe a snowman. And of course, when I'm done I have to enjoy a nice big glass of hot chocolate.
Although I may not be ready for all of these activities in the beginning of October, I am looking forward to lots of winter fun!
