How funny!


Elise called at 3PM. I knew something was wrong. She NEVER calls when she works, so I thought bad news. Turns out the school she works at had a 'snow day.' She was laughing when she described a dusting on the grass, with the grass peeking out, and melting on the sidewalks. She had to get James at the airport, and then they went home, instead of back to work. Everything was cancelled by midday. Imagine a guy from Minnesota and a girl from Wisconsin (with relatives in northern Michigan) being party to this. We had a good laugh. This is an actual photo from someone's deck in Nashville. Check out the snow:)
Here is the article from the Nashville paper.

"Road Conditions Close Schools Across Middle Tenn."
Freezing temperatures overnight Tuesday turned wet roads into slick roads, prompting many Middle Tennessee school districts to cancel classes Wednesday.
Williamson County, Sumner County, Montgomery County and Rutherford County were among the schools districts closed. Metro Nashville Schools opted not to cancel classes Wednesday but told bus drivers to use their discretion about whether or not to run their routes. Slippery spots were reported on back roads in Williamson County and Stewart Country. In Wilson County, officials are urging drivers to avoid the Linwood Road overpass above Interstate 40, due to ice.
