Long ago I was in a Union and every year as a apprentice we had to go to Kansas City to a school. One year there was a guy from Hawaii. First week there came a light snow. A inch, maybe two. We go down for breakfast at the hotel they had us in. We look outside and this huge Samoan is out there barefoot in nothing but cargo shorts dancing around. That guy was out in it every second it was snowing for the rest of the stay. I guess most of us had got that out of our system as kids.
I try to foster that sense of wonder; it’s powerful! I’ve been living in snowy lands for decades now, having grown up in the subtropics. I’m def. not a huge Samoan, so I need some insulation, and with right gear snow time is a blast.
