Since Mother Nature decided to visit over the weekend with a record breaking "weekend before Christmas" snow storm she certainly put the skids on all of us "last minute" shoppers! It was nice to see some borough residents out for a stroll during the storm.
Boots, snowpants, snowsuits and snowbibs were the request of the day at The Growing Tree - children's department! Some got just what they needed, others did not. Our ladies department had a pair of gloves for that one person who forgot hers! Yes, The Mushroom Cap and The Growing Tree are in the same building - never know what you are going to find at 114 W State Street in Kennett Square, PA.
The snow brings back childhood memories of growing up in Kennett Square - sledding down Lafayette Street from Ridge Avenue down to Scarlett - long walk back up but oh, what a ride, sledding in the backyards of homes on Mason Avenue where one of the neighbors made an ice ramp - I jumped on a sled, six others piled on top -I couldn't breathe - scared me to death! The best memory was walking with my Mom to my grandparent's house on Broad Street! Everything becomes so peaceful when there is a significant snowfall.
