Snow!!!!!

Well, the snow has finally arrived, here in the Swamp. I'd say about, hmmmm, maybe two inches in the last hour and it's still comin down pretty good. Supposed to snow all day long. No big deal to me, having been raised in the "Lake Effect" territory. But the rest of the Swamp inhabitants will be totally lost come morning.

Regards,
Dave

We need pictures. I always like snow pictures.

The first snow always looks somehow mystical. Then it gets walked through; the snow plows pile it up on the side of the road; parking lots get mountains of snow at the ends; snow on the side of the road gets black. It can be a PITA to drive around in, and I feel like sisyphus whenever I shovel the driveway, but when the snow is gone, I miss it.

Regards,

D-Ray

Snow Pics

Okay, counselor, here is your photographic evidence of said "Snow" and the (in)activities I have planned for the day.

Regards,
Dave

Looks beautiful. Having real seasons is something I miss out here in Lotusland.

Careful with that elbow and have fun!

So much for that forecast, about 2 inches down and still falling.

Must be the Blue Streak under the tarp? That is a nice looking audio setup there. DC speakers? The liquid next to your chair also has a very nice hue. You have my permission to stay in out of the snow.

Regards,

D-Ray

P.S., thanks for the snow picks. A good snow usually makes the world seem like a more peaceful place.
