and I almost got it!!! The weatherman was right for once! It started snowing early this morning and by the time I left for church it was sticking and piling up. No snow on the roads of course, but still, count on a least a few Aikenites to freak out - meaning that church attendance was rather slim. We had two inches by lunchtime, but around 2pm the temperature rose and it all turned to drizzly rain and washed the wonderful snow away :( Sad day.
But not to fear! We headed up to Asheville where there was plenty of snow to spare! The driving was great until we got into my parents neighborhood, at which point I (deciding to see if it was icy) slammed on the brakes while going around a turn and sent us skidding a few feet with the anti-lock brakes engaging and going crazy. No worries, it was fun and I drove carefully the rest of the way! Now we're here and enjoying the 16 degree weather and foot of snow. Tomorrow we'll head out into the cold and see what Claire thinks of it!
