Snow in Charleston!

On Feb 12th it actually snowed in Charleston. We were having sushi in Mt. P with some friends when it started. We had to drive over the Cooper River Bridge in the civic to get home. It was a little scary and it took about 45 minutes but we made it! When we got home we met Matt and Alyssa to go play in the snow! We used the skim board and a plastic lid to go sledding. (That's how we do it in the south). Even Tiger, their chocolate lab, was getting into it. He would grab the sled in his mouth and run down the hill. He had the general idea, just not the right technique. Next time we will try to get him on the sled : ) We stayed up late enjoying the snow. We even built a snowman right at The Retreat entrance to welcome people in. He was a big hit. We caught several people getting out of their cars to take his picture. Afterwards we wanted Marcus to enjoy the snow too. We brought some up and put it on the porch for him to play in. Turns out, he really wasn't a fan.
