It’s snowing today in Dallas, Georgia.

Every time it snows, I think of the “Welcome Back, Kotter” episode where Horsehack wrote some stupid poem that started “No two snowflakes are alike; no two people are the same” and he was reading it in front of the class in his overly-annoying voice.

Today Im sitting in my living room with the family all asleep, new tunes in the iPod (Chris Mason - “Songs One Through Six”…more on that soon), with the TV off, and I’m thinking about Horseshack.
We don’t get snow very often, and when we do, it’s rare that I get to sit and watch it.

I’m convinced that God was just showing off when He made snow. When He put Adam and Eve in the garden, it was probably a warm place. They were, after all, naked. Plus, there was fruit on the trees, and the animals weren’t curled up in a cave asleep. And the snakes were active. So they probably didn’t see snow the first week after creation was complete.

But the first time they did see it, I bet they were amazed. It’s like God said “Oh…you thought the rest of this was pretty? Wait until you see it in white!”

Chances are good that we won’t be seeing the state of Georgia dressed in white any time soon, but this small glimpse of white is a good reminder of how things look in white and of how much I miss “Welcome Back, Kotter”.
