I had a 4x4. But that doesn’t help when the only road over the mountain pass is closed!
When I first moved to Toronto, I thought how nice it would be to have a white Christmas. After ten in a row, I didn’t feel quite so strongly. But the first snowfall of the year was gorgeous. There would be snowflakes the size of doilies coming down in a breeze-less flutter. Loved it. I never did get used to thunder during snowstorms, though.
