“Snow really does make the world magical.”

The SoCal locals I live among just don’t get it. I tell them how I miss snow and they argue about it. They have never seen snow fall but they are convinced that it has to be horrible.

I tell them look, when I was a kid I’d even be out in the snow all day until my hands froze and it didn’t kill me. Of course out here even rain is big deal so their judgement is warped.

I knew a young woman years ago who came here to college from somewhere in South Asia where she had never seen snow. I remember how amazed she was that it was ‘crunchy’ when she walked on it.

I’m not sure what she expected...
