Winter drive between Faribault & Morristown, 2008.
Stocked up on eggs and milk.
Got gas for the snowblower.
Now waiting
for the winter storm.
Dreamed about a tornado.
Woke up
frightened.
No school?
he hopes.
Only a trace of snow.
Hopes dashed.
Maybe tomorrow.
Will we see wind-sculpted snowbanks by Wednesday here in southeastern Minnesota?
