<p><span style="color:#0000cd;">Snow is on the way-  FINALLY!   It's been a weird winter here so far and many teachers at school were hoping for a snow day tomorrow.  It may be that they get their wish!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#0000cd;">   I have heard varying reports .. most recent was a pretty wide spread  6"-12" on the ground between 4 am - 4 -m tomorrow- (Exactly perfect for a school cancellation! )  </span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="color:#0000cd;">   There is one danger, of course, that many will teachers and kids will stay up late, not do homework/planning in anticipation of a day off and then  BAM-  the storm eases on by, perhaps dumping a foot or more on Massachusetts or Maine ..but nary a flake here.. and we are all caught having to go to school...</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#0000cd;"> I am DEFINITELY staying up late anyway!   SNOW.. SNOW... snow....</span></p>

<p><span style="color:#0000cd;"> ( My snowshoes await by the  door.. ready to go! .. The heck with shoveling!) </span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color:#000080;"> Thanks to all of you who sent your snow to us!</span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color:#000080;"> School was called for me at 5:05AM.. had to wait another  45 mins for the kids High School which is 20 mile northwest of here. Yes and it IS a good snow day.  Power is still on .. the snow is falling and piling up. It's a classic storm with the wind blowing those little frosty edges of snow on all the windows!</span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color:#000080;"> John -  our kids KNOW we love a day off.. we all did a snow dance yesterday!</span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color:#000080;"> Hazelrah, Yes they call school here much more often than when we first started in this district.  Now the road agent calls it really.  Our town was often one of the very few which would have school with a  smaller accumulation for many years, but because we have  several very steep roads ( Anyone who runs leg 26 of Reach the Beach Relay knows our favorites!). we had a couple of incidents where a bus slid off the road.. and that made lots of people nervouse. So, now they call it  more often.</span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color:#000080;">  I probably ought to get out there and shovel!  Airehead.. I don't like that part of it either really..  Maybe you can find a middle school kid to shovel for you if you need it. I know my kids are always looking for a way to earn a few bucks.. I'll send them over? <span><img alt="wink.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wink.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;"></span></span></span></p>
