Snow country!!

Woo-hoo!! Let it snow!

Well as some of you know I'm originally from the outskirts of Syracuse, NY, and we like our SNOW!! It's really been coming down, and I'm lovin' it!!

Today, my sister and went into the city to do some last minute Christmas shopping, and while we were there we met our dad for a pizza at Uno's. 久しぶりで美味しかった!!
I haven't had a good deep-dish pizza in over three years! Japan has some delicious food, but they don't seem to get pizza right. This one was excellent!

After that, the two of us went and did our shopping, and then met our mom and her work friends for their department Christmas party.

On the way home it was REALLY snowing. In such conditions you gotta dive slow, but its a great adventure. So anyway, we were in to separate cars, and I was driving with my mom, when we all of a sudden get a phone call from my sister. Turns out she spun her car around 180 degrees, and was off the road! Well, that's not to out of the ordinary for CNY-ers, but I, having been in Nagoya for the past three winters, was psyched to see some snowland action!

So, we got their and I hopped in the drivers seat. Just then a guy with a 4WD vehicle and a tow hitch stopped by and offered to pull us out. We hooked up the hitches, put both cars in 4WD and popped that baby right out of the snowbank. Good fun! I was also really great that some one was nice enough to stop and help out a fellow human being in need. That really meant a lot to me.

Anyway, that's my story for today.

See you on the other side.
