It all started on Sunday. The weatherman had predicted that even though it was supposed to be 70 something degrees on Saturday, we would indeed have snow on Sunday. I laughed. Didn't believe him. But there was a little bit of me hoping it would. So Saturday came with overcast skies and I ran my first 5k. Shortly there after it rained. Then what do you know, here comes the sun. The weather man was 1-1 at this point. Good job Ben Jones...
Sunday came, I checked the weather and it was around 40 degrees. Pssh. No snow for us, I thought to myself. So I left Sunday school, and what do I see falling from the sky???! SNOW! Well, sort of. At this point it was coming down as snow but quickly melting because it was still warm outside. Then a few hours later, the weather man had been redeemed because it was indeed SNOWING in Macon, Georgia. 2-2, Ben Jones... way to go.
Yesterday, I spent about 9 hours in the car on trek to West Virgin-i-a. Thankfully, I made it safely after about 8 stops (no, that is not an exaggeration). I had planned on skiing like I had always before but I decided to try snowboarding instead. I spent part of the day on my butt, laughing, with soaking wet pants that I thought were waterproof. The other part of the day I was going down hills and trying to figure out how I was still standing.
All in all, it was a grand experience. I like the snow.
I will tell you tomorrow if I like lacrosse or not. more on that later...
Pray that I have safe travels back to Georgia tomorrow. Also pray that I find good music and Starbucks along the way to help me stay awake=)
