Greetings and Happy Account Anniversary!

Wow, that was quite a tale. I’m glad both you and your grandfather managed to survive your respective snow adventures. I’ve never experienced a whiteout, either, so I can only imagine how terrifying it must be. I have read Laura Ingalls Wilder’s The Long Winter, which describes similar disorienting situations. I noticed you didn’t use the word “blizzard,” which is interesting.

As a personal narrative, I don’t have much to offer in the way of suggestions. Your font size could be larger, and there’s no word count, but those hardly matter. You’ve done an excellent job of showing us the stormy weather and the dangers involved. We marvel at how history indeed repeated itself as the snowstorm engulfed you. It’s a useful idea to use the old song as a hook at the beginning, but it doesn’t have that much of a connection to your story.

I like how you’ve included the contest and prompt it was written for, and I see that the Wings and Roots project is one of the activity goals on your bucket list. But since it’s closed at the moment, it may be a while before you can check it off.

This was a good anecdote, and I enjoyed reading it.

Take care, thanks for sharing and keep writing *Smile* *HeartT*
