The Winter Tortoise

Another snow storm has come and gone, leaving some homebound, others off to work – just like any other day.

We people in Northeast Pennsylvania hear the word “Snow“, some trigger goes off. Many run to the grocery store to stock up on bread, milk and eggs. I guess they will survive off of french toast for the day they are stuck in their homes. Some drive around in the snow, with snow-covered windows, bald tires, going way to fast for the conditions of the road.

For me, going up in Northeast Pennsylvania, snow does not bother me one bit. I love to be outside and have no problem shoveling my car out in the morning. I live by this motto when driving in the snow, “SLOW and STEADY”. You will make it to your designation when you get there, no need to rush.

One more thing the tortoise teaches us – everything you need you have with you, as the turtle has his home with him everywhere it goes.
