WHERE DID EARTH’S OXYGEN COME FROM? A NEW STUDY HINTS AT AN UNEXPECTED SOURCE

Summer Blizzard
We drove up the snowy, winding road towards the cozy A-frame cabin, each of us speechless and wildly perplexed. The winding road was not the cause of our quiet ride or collective bewilderment – the dips, elevations, and sharp curves of the road had long failed to bring the same tingle of fear and excitement that it did on our 1st trip 19 years ago. We marveled at the snow and how heavy the gigantic flakes appeared as they lightly floated in a mesmerizing pattern to a perfect pre-assigned spot on what could only be described as a Norman Rockwell Christmas portrait. The snow covered the cabin, ground, and trees in the brightest white velvet, yet the road was still remarkably clear.

Tree-sicles!
I woke up this morning with the terrified realization that I had left pop cans in the garage. So is the woe of the wintery Minnesotan. For those of you who have lived in warmer climates all your lives, you might not realize this, but when cans freeze in your garage in the winter, they often times will explode, leaving a caffeinated, carbonated mess. My mind then took a sharp left, and started thinking about our loveable friends, trees. Deciduous trees (oaks, maples, things that don't have needles for leaves) all look dead and desolate over the winter, but we know they are simply dormant waiting for spring.
