Hooray for Winter! One of my early childhood books featured the poem "I like winter, I like snow; I like icy winds that blow." Today in Berea, Kentucky, we are finally getting some honest winter, with temperatures in the 'teens and inches of snow on the ground. The snow covers a layer of ice so it's not safe to travel -- but the snowpeople on my tie are very happy indeed. I find it interesting to note that the "school closures" common to Kentucky winters are being proclaimed now as days for "virtual learning." I suppose the school systems have some way to measure attendance, so they can claim the state funding that depends on those headcounts?
