12/1/2009 8:00 AM T M M M M Tiny drops of water were slowly materializing on the windshield of the car as we pulled in our driveway around 8PM. It was happening so slowly, it was hard to tell if it was snow melting or just really slow rain due to droplet size. We could not remain in the driveway long enough to study it further - homework awaited inside!
