From January 22nd -24th of 2016, a massive snow storm hit the Mid-Atlantic and Northwest United States hurdling three feet of icy snow into our midst. According to Wikipedia, the blizzard, which was named Jonas, cancelled thirteen thousand flights, caused hundreds of car crashes, and killed fifty-five people.  Unlike public schoolers, many homeschoolers did not receive snow days.  Nevertheless, we had times for great adventures.

M. E. and her family attempted to construct a beautiful igloo.  D.B. dug at least eight tunnels. Also, I think it is safe to say most of us went sledding.  All in all, Jonas cost our nation a lot, but in times of freezing weather and stinging winds, there is always hot cocoa!
