Oooh. Great use of the language!

I grew up on Connecticut and remember winters where four feet of snow fell. Where this small girl fell on ice and shredded her palms and knees into hamburger. I *hate* cold. I *hate* ice. (Oh, sure it's pretty when it turns the leafless trees into glass sculptures in the sunlight...but it also manages to turn the streets into deathtraps.) Snow is pretty...but not pretty enough. I remember walking three feet above the surface of the backyard on the frozen top of the snow and suddenly hitting that spot where one foot went through. I'd stand their sobbing until my mother came out to rescue me. (I was wittle when I did this.)

I do miss fall color in New England, though. I've never seen anything like it.
