Another Couple of "Snow Days"

A blizzard rolled into Wyoming--as well as across half the country--with snow and ice and wind that wouldn't quit. A deep freeze of blinding white drifts...

...Giving us another couple of snow days. 

But only "half-way" snow days. 

Because, although we got to stay home, we still had to attend school using virtual learning tools. The storm was well forecast, and folks had ample chance to prepare. When the snow started blowing, we were ready.

It was still weird. Seeing pupils' faces arrayed across the computer screen, and it felt like we had slipped into a wormhole and got shot out three years ago--right into lockdown!

Nevertheless, teachers and students once again proved themselves adaptable to any situation, and we were able to make it a valuable pair of days worth of work and learning.


Does this then mean the end of the true "Snow Day"?
