I love the snow! Recently I got to experience it here in Arizona. It was amazing how the day before had been close to 80 and then the next we had 8 inches of snow. I was watching as it turned from rain to snow and how it became quiet once it did. The whole world became peaceful. It calmed my soul and invited me to be silent and insightful. I really miss snow; I didn't realize it until I was in the storm for those two days. I miss watching it fall and blanket the world in white. I have been to that Final D many times, always in the summer, and to see it covered in a fluffy blanket was other-worldly. I felt like I was in some mythical place.
The snowman Nikki and Jared, both TWs, built to represent me. They even tried to give it hair using juniper. Nikki is from Hawaii; we had to teach her how to make the snowman. She absolutely loved the snow.
