"It's a snow day today! Yippee! Creeping around the house late last night, the howling wind and the blowing snow promised terrible road conditions for the morning. I became inexplicably happy.
I have encountered others who share my fondness for blizzards, closed roads, and shovelling out from under a two foot blanket of fresh powder. Why do some people feel sad or anxious when winter weather hits, and others feel a bit giddy? I have a theory that the joy is rooted in childhood snow days."
Got a snow day? Take up snowshoeing - see: http://www.ontariotrailsmap.com/ontariotrails.html?cat=18&icon=snowshoeing.png
