I woke to a blanket of white on this first Monday of 2011. Reading facebook posts you'd think all of my St. George friends were in a fantasy world of white. But for me that world of white leaves me feeling cold and shivery.
I live in the dessert to enjoy the warmth that it is supposed to bring. Growing up in Calgary, Alberta and living just an hour from the Canadian Rockies has given me all the snowy experiences I ever needed for my lifetime. You'd think all those years in Canada I'd be a skier or skater or something. But no, I spent my winters wishing for warmth and the summers were always way too short.
