...the last of the snow pictures, and alas it's already back in the 60s/70s just a few short days later. Welcome to the south, where allergies and sinus infections flourish.

But it was fun while it lasted!

From snowmen to snow angels, Maconites squeezed in as many winter activities as possible to celebrate the snow accumulation.

Photo tribute wraps up tomorrow...and the wintry weather is already long gone.

On Tuesday, snowfall of just over 2 inches shut down metropolitan Atlanta’s roads, schools, churches, government offices and businesses. Thousands of flights were cancelled at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. More than 2,000 school children were separated from their parents, and spent the night in buses, police stations, or classrooms....

Good points about urban/city planning (or lack thereof) within our capitol city, just north of MacTown.

One person had a genuine sled. The rest made do with the plastic tops of garbage cans, laundry baskets and whatever else they could find to embrace their inner Shaun White.

This is what the bread isle looks like at many Middle Georgia grocery stores. The rush began Monday when the threats of snow and ice came in the forecast...

And for once the milk/bread run was a good idea because we have a very legit snow day here in Central Georgia!
