Need Snow

 This is a story about a certain small mountain town (which will remain nameless) in need of snow. There is no ski resort  there, but the merchants  do rely on snow-mobilers coming to town and Texans who want to actually see snow. So, what's a town to do? This, by the way, is a current true story. Okay as true as it can be second hand.

 Leroy a town local,who is an aging pot smoking well meaning baby boomer hippie, has been going around collecting money. Seems he needs to raise $1200 to hire an Indian Native American Tribe to do a snow dance. It is rumored he has already been successful at collecting $900..

Meanwhile, a local congregation from one of the Christian churches decided to meet in the town park to pray for snow. While doing so Leroy showed up and he wasn't happy. He even exchanged some angry words with the parishioners. You see with only 345 registered voters in this town, even a small group of believers could cut into his donation pool.

By the way, it did snow that night. Sorry Leroy.....but it was only six inches and much more is needed. So if you know of any sure fire way to attract snow...I will happily pass it along.

  3. Leroy may be a better bet. . .but then again, it depends upon the passion of the parishioners!!
