For the first time in our decade in dixie, where minor dustings are considered snow fall, our grass is covered, and brushing off the car was requirement. This snowfall stayed on the ground for nearly an entire week, which made for some pretty scenery, sparse grocery store shelves and dozens of car wrecks.

Our 2008 Toyota Camry we purchased after Thanksgiving, I have practiced numerous times on how to shift into neutral and other suggested precautions since this is one of those covered under the recall for the defects which cause a case of "Runaway Ride".

Summer Hours? I guess it is time for a slushy then.

A Rossville resident celebrates the snowfall with southern tradition, which involves a last minute trip to the grocery store for bread and milk just because everyone else is doing it. I must confess we did a bit of shopping the night prior to these storms, in part just for fun to watch the others, and partly because one of these days we really will get some accumulation which in this case amounted to 4 inches.

A neighbor in our subdivision finds a fun way to get around.

McFarland Avenue, a road near our home, becomes congested with slow moving traffic due to the slippery hill.

The officials brought out any piece of equipment to clear the snowfall, including a backhoe for the more difficult spots.

Our next door neighbors snowman, there were about a half dozen of them along our road by the next morning. The fun part was seeing them leaning over days later, like drunken sailors.

A major intersection, (Hwy 27 and Hwy 2) becomes a stripped landscape of slush covered streets.
