Dustin Snowboarding

After all these years of my life I am still adapting to the cold and snow of winter. It seems to have been easier as a child. I can remember ice skating and tobogganing at Washington Park in the winter and building snowmen. Now I worry about driving and shoveling in the snow, and the cost of heat in the winter.

Last week when I went to my son’s and his family’s house for the grandchildren’s concerts, my grandson Dustin took me outside to watch him snowboarding. It looks like fun but I gave up on skiing long before there was snowboarding.

Perhaps if I put my time and energy into growing in the sun room I could enjoy winter more. The sun room is a statement to winter that I can grow despite the cold and snow.

I could live with three seasons, spring, summer and fall, but the reality is that there is winter. I may not get used to winter but I need to deal with it.
