Chicago Snow Day

Chicago Snow Day

When I was snowed in Friday I left the confides of my apartment and ventured back to my parents house. I have two little brothers still in High School so I spent the day with them doing some of the things I used to do when it snowed. We helped an elderly neighbor get his car out of the driveway and best of all threw snowballs. I am a little old to be throwing snow at passing cars but my brothers is a different story. After that me went in the back yard and messed around with a BB rifle that I had left when I moved out. Hitting targets on a TV or computer screen is nothing compared to stalking around the backyard pretending you are somewhere besides the city and picking off targets (no animals were harmed)and talking trash about who can shoot best even though none of use can really hit anything with accuracy. It doesn’t get much more nostalgic than a Red Rider BB Gun.
