Axel made his home in Minneapolis because he grew up there, but he came to hate the cold, so he also kept a place in Florida, where he stayed from October to April.
One September, winter arrived early. Axel tried to head south, but a fierce snowstorm grounded all flights. He sat in his recliner, watching children sled down a frozen fairway. He’d almost forgotten how he loved snow days as a boy.
Axel bundled up and went outside. A kid offered him a turn on his sled. Axel flew down the fairway, screaming with delight and feeling toasty inside.
