March snow



Well, technically not March. But almost, and this amount of snow is more typical of March. There are two feet on the ground in Minneapolis. Lots of stuff closed--schools, corporations, libraries, churches. But it was a one day wonder. The plows came out, the salt trucks contributed to the degradation of the environment, and people put on their boots and shoveled out. "This", they said to themselves, "is what makes us different and (dare we say) better."
