NOVEMBER 17

Ten years ago today it snowed. 
It was my first snow. 
It was amazing, truly magical,
for this Phoenician. 

I fell in love, just a little bit more, with the Midwest. 

That was just one piece of what the day would surprise me with. 

I also hit black ice on a two lane county road. 

I rolled my very large and sturdy vehicle into a ditch. 

I met new people.
I made new friends.

I learned lessons 
that day. 

I won’t ever forget November 17th

In retrospect, 
ten years later, 
it was a good day.
