Winter wonderland

Almost two feet of snow have fallen this week and they're only 50% finished cleaning the streets in the city. C told me that it costs the city $60 million dollars for each snowstorm. That's a lot of money. And when you add on all the layers of winter clothes and winter boots and electricity and gas to run all the heaters, winter can get really expensive here.

I've been trying to get the boys used to the snow. Their day care lady says they don't want to stay outside at all. I say it's the Texan in them. I can completely understand.
