Dear Friends,

Oh my goodness!  I was visiting Ms. England’s family in Chicago, Illinois when a blizzard hit!  The winds were blowing so hard it was difficult for people to walk. There was even lightening and thunder during the storm and after it was all over, more than 20 inches of snow fell. There was so much snow that almost everyone stayed home for the day until the plows could move the snow. It was the third-largest snowstorm to ever come to Chicago and I was here to see it.  It was so much fun playing in the giant piles of snow.  I climbed a tree, slid down a hill and even made a  “Snow Bear.” It was truly a Winter Wonderland.

Hugs from your Friend,

Tidy Teddy
