The Purpose of Winter is Snow

Posted on the 11 January 2011 by Alysonisneat



The contrast between the last post I had up and today's post are a constant reminder of why there is a magnificent phenomenon known as snow.  In the winter in Nashville at least, there is no evergreen vegetation; unlike my hometown in East Texas, where the pine trees were a'plenty.  The trees are bare branched and the fields of grass are brown and sickly.  Of course being a southern girl, snow is a miracle.  It was a rare occassion to spend winters sledding, or to even throw a snowball.  I have only built a few snow men in my time.  I know that when I wake up and the ground is covered in this beautiful snow, the day won't be so bad.
