Wow! I bet it's really pretty...until you actually have to leave!
You want to see funny? When a weathercaster even mentions the "S" word, all the supermarkets here run out of bread, milk, bottled water and toilet paper. Two inches of snow and we're locked down for three days. LOL Yesterday it was 75 and sunny. Now the "S" word is SPF for your sunblock.
As long as you can get out for St. Patricks Day! |

Don't know about you, but I've had about all the winter I need at this point.
Gimme some warm breezes and grass to mow.

I used to live in North Central Wisconsin. Looks like just another early day in May there. |

Here in Lexington, KY the natives also scamper to their local grocery stores to pick up "milk, bottled water and toilet paper." They also pick up scads of... white bread. When we first moved down here from Chicago in '93 and noticed this phenomenon, I asked my wife, "What do you think they're going to do with all that white bread?" She pondered a moment, then said, "Maybe put it under their tires to get out of snow drifts?"
Every decade or so my sweety gets in a good one!

I live in BUFFALO...if ONLY we got that much snow!
Fortunately, though, all we've been getting this winter is the cold. _________________ - Peter

here in the otherwise reasonably sane south, we recently gained national press coverage for having a whole 3-county area shut down with less than an inch of snow and frozen snow. 15 minute drives turned into 7 hour treks. more than 3,000 kids trapped at school overnight. insanity. glad i was working from the home studio.
a friend who used to work in a local video store told me the true story of a good ol' boy (or maybe it was a college dude) who came in one snowy night ahead of a big storm, plopped a whole stack of videos on the check-out counter and proudly declared that if the power went out at least he'd have him a whole buncha videos to watch.
i'll be he'd just cleaned out the grocery of bread, milk, and toilet paper (and beer).
enjoy the white fluffy stuff. ...and dust off that steam-powered vcr.

my first wife's brother lived in Marietta, and joked when it snowed he could have made a fortune selling spatulas.... not an ice scraper to be found. |

That picture reminds me of April months growing up in Idaho. My brother is in Maine now near Booth Bay Harbor, didn't you guys get 14" last week too?
