[QUOTE="Andy, post: 191205, member: 5096"] If you know what to do and are prepared, you will not have to be scared. As a tornado siren tells us it is time to be safe with a danger heading our way, so the 1st snow flake tells us it is time to be safe in the event of a snowstorm. We have learned that 1st snow flake can be the 1st blizzard so we start to prepare for winter when the fall weather hits. Make sure you have the makings of pancakes or waffles (including butter and syrup) and hot chocolate mix on hand. Nothing like pancakes and hot chocolate on a snow day (also sausage links). Get the best sled you can find for slidding and set aside a few dark rocks and some sticks to build a snowman. Look into purchasing a snowmobile if you like such things. Snowmen make witer bearable - how can you not smile when you see one? Get some salt to sprinkle on your side walk. If you have a garage for the vehicle, get it ready to park in (less scaping of frost and brushing snow) - but remember, frost and snow comes when you are out and about so still keep that snow brush/scrapper ready in the vehicle. If you hear "no travel advise" do not ignore it. That statement is not made lightly and needs to be obeyed. If you make a ton of snowballs and put them on the edge of your yard, you will soon see tons of kids enjoying a snowball fight. Snowbanks make great snow forts. Invite the little neighbor boy over and give him a shovel to sculpture a fort out of a pile of snow. Actually snow is fun if it would just stay of roads and walkways. [/QUOTE]
