That Kind of Snow

Blurry Winter Window, Coco Mault

It’s the kind of snow that blurs my sight
A crosshatch pattern the wind sifts through one moment, then pulls like a net
And water falls out of my eyes
And melts off my hat onto my nose, joins the other stuff running from my nose
And for some reason my glasses fog, uncontrolled
The snow is trying to tell me to
go the other way
Home is the long way round today
It’s the kind of snow that’s not quite powder, doesn’t quite stick
That snugs and snaps into the treads of my boots, 
sounds like leather or when a horse’s joints click
The ice underneath this snow might pull my feet out from under me,
it tries
That’s the kind of snow today
falling from the sky

-- Coco Mault

Let's Go! San Francisco

San Francisco October 13-17, 2017
After a long flight delay, we arrive in the city on the evening of the 13th!

SECOND DAY
We ride the street car yet again, take a ferry to Alcatraz Penitentiary, the Old Ship Saloon, Fisherman's Wharf, and the Musee Mechanique!

 

THIRD/FINAL DAY 

We ride the street car yet again, visit the Mark Hopkins Intercontinental Hotel, and try delicious mung bean buns in Chinatown.

 

Let's Go! Logrolling

Come with me to my very first log rolling class! I've been wanting to do this for AGES and I finally do it!

Let's Go! Minnesota's Largest Candy Store

Join Max and I as we take a short road trip to Jordan, Minnesota, to visit Minnesota's Largest Candy Store! I show you tons of stuff, but there really is so much more. Our mission was to find things to taste on our podcast, Wildest West! So STAY TUNED for the tasting video and podcast -- I vlogged us recording it.

Let's Go! Paris

Join me on my first trip to Paris, France! 

DAY 1

I buy a baguette, wander the city, and make my way to the Eiffel Tower.

DAY 2 

Watch my uncle break a fence on the grounds of Versailles (I get teary-eyed, but not because of the fence). Keep watching for my boozy walk through The Ritz at 2am.

DAY 3 

A thunderstorm starts the day and by afternoon the temperature reaches 90 degrees. I dip my toes in a fountain at the Louvre. The day ends perfectly at an outdoor cafe where I listen to live jazz and sip my first spritz cocktail.

Let's Go! Los Angeles

Join Max and I as we visit Hollywood (our old neighborhood), explore movie and tv backlots, tour the Autry Museum, and talk about our new podcast -- The Wildest West.
