This might be another good time to discuss my theory on how snow is a direct result of Adam and Eve eating the forbidden fruit, but rather I thought I would talk about the benefits of snow:
Snow in Colorado is almost always powdery. This is not good for snowballs or for snowmen, but it is great for shoveling. It's almost like no work at all. The last two winters I didn't even have a shovel, I merely swept our porch, sidewalk and driveway. This year I carry a shovel in my Pathfinder for work, so I've been breaking it out to shovel the above mentioned surfaces. I'm not going to go so far as to say I enjoy the act of snow removal, but there's worse things one could be doing. I guess it's just nice for a break from sitting around inside all day, to actually get outside and do some physical labor.
I really didn't list a benefit of snow, perhaps looking at snow is it's only benefit. How can a result of an act of disobedience be so beautiful. Maybe it's like a painting by a convict, or a quilt by a lawyer. We should just appreciate it for what it is, and not ask too many questions.
