Golf Balls Falling From Heaven
Yessiree, it hailed today. Well, technically, it hailed a little bit and snowed the rest of the time. First snowfall of the year. It's actually a little late for the first snowfall of the season. Oftentimes the snow comes in September, once it came even in late August. This year it was still in at least the 80s throughout August, so we didn't get much snow then. In fact, it was still pretty warm up until a week or so ago. Then the average temperature dropped quite a bit - like 10 or 20 degrees. The coolness is kind of refreshing, but I still prefer 90 degree weather more than 30. But I can't help that. The snow came on rather suddenly, first with the hail (the ice was significantly smaller than golf balls), then it rapidly shifted into the white fluffy flakes of frozen air, water, and dust that everybody recognizes. Naturally, I went outside barefoot. I usually do it quite a bit during winter, even if there are several inches of snow on the ground. I figured it would be a good idea to get back into it again. After wandering around a bit on the half melted hailstones and snowflakes, I grabbed a good hunk of the stuff, and...well...*coughateitcough* Then a I promptly went back inside and settled down next to a heater vent.
