Snow

We woke up this morning to a world sheathed in white. It had snowed. As is kind of tradition here in western Germany, we didn’t get a white Christmas, but it snows at the very beginning of January instead. This has been going on for decades and it has actually snowed at the beginning of January every other year or so. Usually, when it snows here, it is at the start of January.

The press, of course, has been telling us for over 25 years now that kids will never see snow again. But this continues to be proven wrong for one generation after the other. When I look out my window right now, I see several kids happily building a snow man. It’s almost like most of these predictions are utter bullshit. 🤔
