(A creative writing piece based on a photo of some backcountry skiers with poles and large duffel bags. With the teacher’s help and prompting Jon came up with this story. —L)

Suppose one day I look outside and the snow turned into candy. I would call my dad to see all the candy. I would ask dad to help me fill up the bags full of candy. I would take the candy home. I would eat some of it and put the rest away. I like to eat candy. It looks yummy. I wish this could be true.
