Well, hell must really be freezing over.  This is the second snow day this year in Baton Rouge!  Of course the first snow day, we did not see any snow near our house, just a little rain.  Then on the canceled school day, there was nothing.  Now some parts of Baton Rouge and nearby had seen snow, but not us.

Today was different!  I woke up early and looked out.  Nothing.  I thought it was going to be another wasted day, but then by 7 am, it began snowing!  Within 30 minutes, my backyard was looking like this:

It was cold, but it was beautiful.  The snowflakes were huge!  Some of them were close to 2 inches wide.  They steadily drifted to the ground.  I stuck my hand out from under the porch to catch some.  It has been years since I had seen real snow up close.  I stood on the back porch and was immediately overcome with a feeling of calm relaxation.  I just love the snow!

I had wanted to build a little snowman, no matter how small.  But the snow did not get thicker than that, and by 10:15, it had stopped.  We live on the very souther tip of the parish, so we were lucky to even see snow.  It was a nice day to enjoy.  Naturally, we celebrated by making a huge pot of chicken gumbo.  After all, it was gumbo weather!

The snow melted as quickly as it had come, but I will forever cherish the snow.
