It’s SNOWING!

by @ 11:55 am. Filed under Europe Blog

And has been all day!

Sadly it’s not quite enough to put any decent amount on the ground…although it’s really cold (below freezing) we’ve got enough sunlight to melt most of what stays on the ground. In other words…no snowballs yet.

Being a Californian…a Bay Area guy…snow is still a bit of a novelty. I’ve had a lot of experience with it, but just fleeting moments that didn’t last. Here…well…this IS Switzerland…and I want it to snow snow and snow some more.

I felt like a little kid outside catching snowflakes on my jacket and looking at ‘em…wandering around humming Christmas songs.

Being from a non-snow environment instantly creates a feeling of “Christmas” when I’ve got snow falling on me. It’s a great feeling…a pleasant sensation…one that definitely makes me happy.

And although today is Thanksgiving…and I’m sure most of you are with family and friends, smelling wonderful kitchen smells (well, in a couple hours at least…it’s still fairly early over there…) I feel at peace with the world, and happy to be alive.

So thanks to all of you for sticking with this…from the massive amount of writing, the silly stories, the funny pictures….and above all…sticking with me.

I can’t wait to see you all…and it’s going to happen very soon.

And I’ll throw a snowball at someone…just ’cause I can.

Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Holidays!!
