Snow events

This is the second morning in a row we've awoken to light snow.
Friday I met my friend Susan at Perkins for breakfast and although the roads were okay, business was so slow they were sending some of the wait staff home.
Saturday I got an email from the school district announcing that all district activities were cancelled -- except for the Middle School Lego Robotics tournament. This didn't surprise me: I've been to some of these tourneys, and the participants are intense and focused competitors, with astonishing talent and creativity. In 20 years we'll be reading an interview with the next Bill Gates or Steve Jobs and he or she will be reminiscing about learning to write code as part of Lego Robotics club.
