Snow day

Or so we thought. So Dan wanted to go up to Mt. Baldy to let the kids play in the snow on Saturday. It was a beautiful day it was around 60 degrees so about noon we decided to head up there. Now Dan works up there a lot and told me that it is about a thirty minute drive so it would be closer than driving to Wrightwood or any of the other snow areas. Well after two hours of sitting in traffic and only about half way there I told him that it was not going to be worth it but he said he really wanted to do it and Christian was so excited about it. So we continued up the mountain. Well about thirty minutes later there was a sign that says Snow Chains required (which we didn't have) so we finally turned around. Of course Christian got really upset about this so on our drive home we saw some snow that had fallen off someones truck and we pulled over I jumped out pick up a big chunk of snow and gave it to Christian. He was so excited about it and played with it until it melted. If I would have known that giving him a chunk would have been sufficient I would have stopped a car that had pasted us two hours before and asked them if we could have some snow out of their truck bed. So we didn't play in the snow but Christian still had a good time. We will have to try again later or maybe go up to Utah where there is snow everywhere.
