February 17, 1965 Jocie Brooke here reporting from Hollyhill, Kentucky three days after Valentine’s Day. It’s been snowing and snowing. That’s given me lots of time to think about all the different kinds of love and back to some of the things that happened in those Heart of Hollyhill books I’m in. You know it’s funny that last Hollyhill …
I’ve been away from home for a few days keeping my son’s kids. Great kids, but lively. There was snow up their way and of course they wanted to go out and play in it. Trouble was the wind chill was double minus something. It wasn’t so bad the day I got there and so we rushed on our boots …
A snow day literally and figuratively falls from the sky, unbidden, and seems like a thing of wonder. ~Susan Orlean Kentucky winters are unpredictable. We might have snow. We might not. When my oldest son was six, he got a sled for Christmas. We did not have sledding snow for years. Then the year he was eleven the heavens opened …
January 6, 1965 Jocie Brooke reporting from Hollyhill, Kentucky. It’s snowing! It’s snowing! No school in Hollyhill tomorrow. I shouldn’t be happy about that since we just went back to school from Christmas break last week, but when you get a snow day, you have to be happy. Aren’t you happy when you get a snow day? I love snow. …
Ben Wilson February 3, 1964 Jocie Brooke here reporting from Main Street, Hollyhill. Snow fell yesterday. At least three inches. Plenty to make the county roads slick and so no school. Yaaayy! It’s always especially cool when snow happens on a Monday. Everybody hates getting up on Monday morning even if they have their homework done already. And I did. …
Snow picture on Ann’s Farm 2013 We’ve had a little snow several times this winter, but it has been a little each time. An inch here. A couple of inches there, or maybe only a trace. We even had a little ice one day but it mostly clung to the trees and didn’t coat the ground. I like snow like …
2013. Now that’s a number that can make you sit up and take notice. I don’t know why, but it just seems more in the future than 2012. Maybe that’s because it is – in the future. The year to come. A year full of the unknown. Good unknowns. Perhaps not so good unknowns. Would you like to know what …
When I was a child, I had a great uncle that seemed ancient to me. When we went to visit him he was always sitting in a chair in a room with bookshelves loaded with books and snowglobes. I was amazed by all the books and fascinated by the snowglobes, but of course, not allowed to play with them. Occasionally …
~The weather people talked about snow for days and it finally showed up down here on the farm. We got about four inches – a light dusting compared to what they got west and south of us. But plenty for me. I like a little snow every winter, but I’m always ready to see it go, too. This morning it …
It appears winter wasn’t quite through with us. Last Sunday was balmy. This Sunday snowy. Our church didn’t have services the same as about three-fourths of the churches in the area. And it just hasn’t seemed like Sunday without going to church to meet and worship with my church family. Actually due to the SC Book Festival and then going …
