Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow

OMG.  The snow is coming down really thick and fast.  It's like snow drifts dropping from the sky.  I hate to say this, but it's really beautiful.  I always get kind of excited when the snow starts falling.  It's like a new cover for the ground.  It looks like there are a lot of closings coming across the t.v.  Another snow storm, yeah, I guess.  I knew it wasn't done for the season, as a lot of people had hoped.  We still have a couple of more months of this stuff to deal with.  I don't mind the snow, it's the cold that I don't like.  I get chilled to the bone.  Even though I have some extra weight on for this year, I still get cold very easily.  I kind of wonder what it would be like to have no snow for the winter, and be like tropical weather in the Virgin Islands.  Some day I will experience a whole season without snow.  Two years ago I went on a cruise to the Caribbean, and it was in January when  it started to get really cold here in Michigan.  It was quite nice to not have to wear a coat, and the sun shined every day.  The islands were beautiful, and the snorkeling was great.  The water was just the right temperature, and very warm.  The fish on the corral reef where very colorful, like neon blue and black.  I also saw an octopus.  Some of the fish were neon yellow.  It was a great time.  The food on the ship was outstanding, and so was the entertainment.  I think I might want to go on another cruise again, some day before I die.  This time to maybe the French Riviera.  That would be exciting.
