back to the Down to Earth

Yup! Down here in FL, we see grass all year round. Today is actually the first semi-cool day of the season. I've only seen snow once in my life, but this winter, I'm going up north for part of Christmas break. I have never seen snow cover a patch of ground, or it falling.

We only get snow a few days of the year here. But the payoff is that we typically have nice summers.

Yeah, I can, except it's night now....  :):):)  Can you? My friend said that her cousins, who live in Florida, freaked out when they saw frost on their car.  They had NEVER seen snow!!!  Isn't that sad??  I just bought my winter coat and snow pants yesterday!!
