Being born and raised in southern California, it totally sucks that I never got to experience this.

[...] Introducing 1000 Awesome Things, a site dedicated to one awesome thing a day. Created in June 2008, it’s been counting down to the #1 awesome thing ever since – and a book was published in April 2010 of some of the most “awesome” things from the site. It can be anything awesome, from locking people out of cars and pretending to drive away to hanging out with your mom (love this one!) to snow days. [...]

What a bunch of wimps! I grew up in Northwest Territories, Canada (near Alaska for you Americans) & if we closed the school everytime it snowed, we would never go to school! It was -40 for 6 months of the year! One day, we had a “Sun day” when we were let out early because it went up to 28 degrees celsius (82 degrees fahrenheit). Snow days are for wimps!

Snow days were great, but being from a fairly mild climate, we didn’t get many. We did get lots of teacher strikes though, which were fun because they lasted longer. One even started while we were at school so we got to leave early. Yaaa!

Living in northern Ontario, snow days came often and were always lived to the fullest! I am determinded to live somewhere like a small town or rual area so when I have kids of my own they will have schools that close down and they will know the joys of a snow day! Nothing beats that freedom!

I live in Calgary, so I never get any snow days. The only time schools close down is when it’s -40 degrees celsius, with no wind chill. If’s it -40 WITH wind chill, OFF YOU GO TO SCHOOL. It sucks.

I must be insane. I LOVED going to school on snow days. People who came were in on a secret. I always had fun and it was more like a day to hang out at school with my friends. Without work. I don’t live close to any of them, so it was a nice time to get together with them.
