I grew up in GA about 15-20 miles from the NC line. I've had so many people ask me if I've ever seen snow . If they only knew... Many were the times the school bus could not navigate the roads due to snow. Like HH says, it was never more than 4-6" and usually was gone with a day or so, but north GA is quite mountainous (Smoky Mountains) so travel became hazardous. Our driveway was 3/4 a mile long, all switchbacks to the top of a hill where our house was perched. Many times after some ice or snow, we had to park the car at the bottom near the highway and lug the groceries or whatever up the drive by ourselves.

Oh my, horses! Beautiful pictures HH! It is yet another similarity between us. My sister and I had first ponies, then horses, during the time we were growing up in GA. She currently lives in South Texas and has several of her own, but I am now an urban dweller and horses are something I see on TV or in parades. .

Were you in a Ren Faire or Pageant in the 2003 picture? You look so...elegant and ethereal.
