Snow in Birmingham!! (January 27-28, 2000)

1) The snow started to fall just before midnight on Thursday.... 4) The next morning, our neighborhood parks had become winter wonderlands!
2) Within an hour or so, the cars in the parking lot (including our Saturn!) were covered... 5) Raya tests out our first makeshift sled, a plastic lid, with a local doggie friend...
3) It started to come down a little harder around 1 AM.... 6) Eric gives it a try, headfirst. The lid didn't work so well...but our second sled of the morning, our "eternally borrowed" metal UF parking sign worked great!
