Weather Alert

One of the great things about living in the South is the complete panic that envelops the city when snow hits. This weekend Durham received about 8-10 inches of snow and everyone went into pandemonium; it really cracks me up. Flights were canceled for two days, which I still don't understand...airlines can fly into Canada in the winter, but when RDU has 2 inches of snow, lets shut down the air ways...seriously?

So my response to prepare for this weather was to buy a sled. Well the panic poured into the sled business as well. I called approximately 15 different stores and everyone one was "sold out". So Cullen and I did what any normal sled enthusiast would do, we headed to Home Depot. There were many options for make shift sleds, but we went with the corrugated roofing material and some rope. Here is what we ended up with.





Here my genius husband is trying to walk on a frozen pond. Always a good idea!



Duke's Campus looked beautiful in the snow.
