This past tornado season‚ the weather was naturally stormy‚ but nothing of great concern had taken place. Finding out that the weather was going to be severe was no surprise; in fact‚ it was a source of excitement for some. For example‚ working at a daycare‚ when the weather is severe‚ parents pick their children up earlier than usual‚ resulting in the

“Our days would be spent visiting different places beyond Shimla‚ for the first time I saw snow-capped mountains‚ pine trees weighed down with snow and its peculiar fragrance which sets the atmosphere romantic‚ people hurling snowballs at each other‚ and gliding through the snow from the top of the hill.
