ALCOA, Tenn. — The wind brought the snow, the snow brought the sledders, and Scott Jablonski brought his family Tuesday.
"Oh yeah, absolutely," Jablonski said. "Get them out here. Because if you're cooped up in the house, you'll go crazy."
His daughter Dylan and son Garrett enjoyed the snow at Alcoa High School's big hill near the duck pond.
"We're trying to keep warm," Jablonski said. "In between that, coming out here and getting cold."
The cold couldn't be more different from the heat of the kickball field.
Garrett has a rare genetic disorder that slowly takes his motor skills, speech and ability to understand.

This past August, the Jablonskis hosted the 5th annual Guardians For Garrett kickball tournament to help pay for Garrett's treatment.
Tuesday, the snow lured him back outside.
"Over the shoulder all morning making pancakes--when are we going when are we going? Jablonski said, as he pointed to his kids. "This one over here--let's go let's go let's go. Gotta feed them, got to get them dressed and here we are, finally out here, so."
So they brought the tube and let gravity do the rest.
"When I was in high school, it seemed to snow a little bit more, and we used the tube there," Jablonski said. "And we got a little crazy every once in awhile. Dylan thinks we go faster, so."
And on a day when the snow moved in fast going slow, was never an option.
"We don't get to sled much--bring it, bring some more," Jablonski said. "What is it 2020? We got to try out for luge. So, we need some practice."
