It was the first snow of the year yesterday!When it started falling I was so excited because snow is my favorite weather... but then it fell more... and more... and more!!!! We got 11-12 inches where I live! And it really resulted in a crazy day.
Ok so we were at the mall just wasting time, when snow started coming down hard. So, we decided to get out of the mall soon because it was snowing, and we live about 20 min away. By the time we started driving there was already about 3 inches of snow and the roads were getting icey. Let me just start by saying a drive that should have taken 20 minutes... took THREE HOURS! I was stuck in a car for three hours where half of the time my sister was freaking out... it was insane. Traffic was at a complete stop. Finally, about an hour and a half into the ride we got to a hill that heads to our house... and we saw cars slideing down the hill hitting other cars! It was crazy. So we ended up having to take the back way where there wasn't as many cars. And we did, and we were fine. But that still left this huge hill we had to take that lead to my house. So after another hour of complete chaos, we get to the long hill. We were about to start driving (Our plan was to get some speed going up the hill so we won't slide down on ice) when a slow plow came! So we were really excited because we thought that the snow plow would clear the path! So we followed closely behind him until he started going slower and slower. After about 30 seconds of going up the hill the plow truck was at a complete stop... and what happened next was insane. The snow plow started slipping on the ice and fell back toward us. We had to turn quickly on to the side of the road just so we wouldn't get smashed by a snow plow truck! I was in complete panic when I saw it come at us. :P Shortly after almost getting our car totaled by a plow truck we were finally home. And guess what we did!? Watch a movie while drinking hot cocoa... that was my idea. :P We shoveled our driveway... which resulted in a numb face. (which is my fault for thinking I'm to cool to wear a hat in 5 degree whether!) :D So that was my insane snow day... which now that I think about it, would have really been nice on someday like Christmas! A white Christmas would be nice. And an even better day to have snow like this is... ANY SCHOOL DAY! :P Come on! We don't get a flake of snow during school days... but when Christmas vacation comes along we get a foot! Anyway, thanks for reading, and have a Happy New Year!:D
