Another Snow Day?

OK , so we've had a few more snow flakes fall, and it's in the twenties, but this is ridiculous! They have canceled school again. At this rate the Beaver won't get a summer vacation.

When did the midwest become winter pansies? I grew up in northern Ohio and we had blustery winters that would freeze your nose and toes off. It was a pretty rare thing to get a snow day. But here in Kentucky they just haven't had this type of winter in many, many years. Seriously, for those of you who know what a real snow storm is (my son-in-law, Craig, for one!) you would laugh at the light dusting that is on the ground here, and the roads are all black asphalt. Maybe it is icy. I haven't been out yet . . .
