A snow is not only beautiful but also holds up traffic.

雑記 英語

It have snowed in my parents' city since this night, again.
I had been truly impressed with the snow scene, but I've been fed up with it!!
If we feel cold only, there aren't so many problems; it is an ice road that troubles us.


My sister called me about 9 p.m. and she said that the heavy snow kept her car from going ahead.
Then we have two driver, me and my father; but he had been already drunk, so I drove to her and picked her up.


It costs too much, doesn't it?
