Cajun Food and

Snow!

We spent Tuesday traveling once again to Sarah and Jeff’s abode in Bridgeport. I was planning on helping Sarah grade her student’s science fair projects on Wednesday evening and on Thursday morning. We had made plans to stay Tuesday and Wednesday nights with Sarah and Jeff. On Tuesday evening the kids treated us to a special meal at Bon Appetit – Clarksburg newest restaurant.

After Hurricane Katrina, Chef LeRoy Crump left New Orleans to start all over again in Clarksburg. He’s relocated his Cajun restaurant downtown across from the Harrison County Courthouse. What a wonderful evening! I can highly recommend Chief LeRoy’s gourmet New Orleans cuisine. He provides excellent food at very reasonable prices. (You have to love that CAJUN ETOUFFEE!)

We awoke Wednesday morning with snow falling at a pretty good rate. Sarah went on to her work at Fairmont State University - Grandma and I played with Sam. Sam was excited about the Christmas tree. He is really good about not grabbing the lights and RUNNING through the house!




The snow continued and quickly became thick and heavy. Roads were getting treacherous. We stayed in the house all day – it is one of the joys of retirement when one does not have to travel dangerous snowy roads. Sarah called and said that the evening science class has been cancelled due to the weather. No science fair judging on Wednesday and decisions were made also to cancel the Thursday morning 8 AM science class. No science fair judging will happen this week for this retired science teacher




Sam donned his WVU Mountaineer hat and thought that it was time to venture out into the snow storm. Wrong!



We had to wait until Sarah and Jeff returned from work. Sam once again dressed for the 7+ inches of snow. Sam’s first reaction to the snow was not one of excitement. He stayed in one place wondering why he could not move. I am not worrying – I know he will soon get on to the joys of playing in the snow.




Thursday was a great day with the snow over and the sun made the new snowfall sparkle. Everyone went back to work and we finished our shopping chores and returned to the hamlet of Glenville around 7 P.M. Tis another episode in the adventures of Jim and Judy.
