Much to our surprise, we got a little bit of snow at our house last night! No, it wasn't much, but we sure did think it was pretty and worth sharing with everyone. Felix and I have some fun memories in the snow. Felix is from New Orleans and had never seen snow a day in his life. So, in January of 2002 we were living in Auburn and the forecast called for snow. Felix kept me up all night because he couldn't wait to see his first snowflake. Hour by hour we would get up and go outside. Finally, the snow came and the next day Felix and I walked all over Auburn (the greatest place in the world) and played in the snow. We took photos (pre-digital era) at Samford Hall, Toomers, the stadium, etc.
Our 2nd snow experience was a sight to be seen!! It was February of 2006 and Felix and I took a small weekender to NYC. Wouldn't you know that they were predicting the largest blizzard of all time? Luckily, the Joiners were in NYC as well and we were all ready to take on the battle. Well, 26 inches of snow fell--a record for Central Park--and boy was it pretty. We all got snowed in NYC (we didn't mind) and got to play in Central Park in the snow all day long. Saks even had a special "snow day" menu--yes, Saks was still open! It was truly an experience. I had never seen so much snow in my life. I have included some photos to share...
Now that is alot of snow!!
I can't see because of the wind, ha!
