When I was a child I used to believe...
...that when it snowed a lot, like over 8 inches, and the snow collected on the lawns, I would look at it and just know that the lawn wasn't there anymore...it was all just snow now...and if I dared walk on it, I would fall right through...fall and fall and fall, no bottom! Once my sister pushed me onto the "bottomless" lawn and I screamed bloody murder till my Dad came and picked me up, has was shovelling, so he took a moment and shovelled me right up, and I was safe again. Whew, it was a close call I tell ya!
