I understand that this is a blog based out of Salt Lake City and that there are now TWO contributors out in this mountainous snowy wonderland. But I’m from a beach and spent most of my life in fairly warm climates, so when I found out last week that I’d be stuck in my house as two feet of snow piled itself upon my panicked city…my first reaction was…”Wait…whaaaat?” My second reaction was to make this playlist which came from cherry picking tunes that showed up when I typed “winter” and “snow” into my iTunes library. Perhaps unsurprisingly, this is a relatively low key mix best enjoyed with hot chocolate, at least up until “Winter Wonder Land” which seems like the signal to put the mix down and start up a snowball fight.

Sweet mix, but reading this also makes me glad it doesn’t sow as much down in Provo as it does in SLC!
Welcome to Salt Lake City! It’s like this every year, snowy and horrible, and bad drivers to add to it.
Hey, at least there’s snowboarding and skiing though, right?
Hey Heather,
I’m actually that weird contributor that still lives on the East Coast (Washington DC to be specific) but I’m sure that PJ appreciates the welcome! And your thoughts on snow.
