Decatur Snow Party
Decatur Metro | March 2, 2009With the year-after-year success of the “Decatur Beach Party”, on Sunday the city of Decatur surprised its residents with a first annual “Decatur Snow Day”!
I took this pic after making a snow angel in the street...
Shops closed and residents headed for the hills to slip and slide in the slush.
The cost to make it snow over the entire city is still unknown, but some residents wondered if it was the best use of city funds during a recession. Those people were unceremoniously pelted with snowballs.
Umbrellas in the snow! Now I've seen EVERYTHING!

Are you serious… you made a snow angel in the street?! Glad your neighborhood’s trees survived but sorry to hear some of the big old ones didn’t make it. Always sad to see.
No, sorry Mom. My weak attempt at humor. Much too slushy to make snow angels at a major intersection!
The funny thing? It’s going to get down to 21 degrees tonight, but forecast to get close to 80 on Saturday. That’s Georgia weather for ya.
I like your humor Nick- shall we add this new event to the annual calendar?!
Cheryl has a good idea – let’s create another festival !
Thanks Cheryl! And please do…we desperately need a festival that gets us through the dark days of winter!!
I hear the City will, as usual, be giving residents the left over snow to use in children’s play areas, beer coolers, and ice boxes.
Of course Baron- nothing goes to waste!
