Yes - I have ten inches

Okay - I may be boasting just a bit, but I'm sure I'm soon to have 12 inches.



It is 14 degrees so it's very light and fluffy. I had a blast cruising around in 4WD exploring back roads. When I returned I found that the back of my Yukon was completely snow covered as you see. For whatever reason, it just felt right to pull in the drive, open the garage door, and have the beautiful, shiny P-car sitting there safe and sound.

My wife and I took the dog out for a walk. Just beautiful. It was like being in a snow globe. Normally I envy those of you who live in warmer climates. Not tonight.

May I direct your attention to the big snow blower parked behind the 911. However, the snow is so light and fluffy, I could probably just fire up the leaf blower.

PS - I'm not taking work until mid Feb.

I'll be on a flight to Honolulu in the morning, ironically leaving "sunny" California for the beach.

Dude.......you are harshing on my buzz.



Normally, this time of year I'm fantasizing about living, not just visiting, somewhere warm. For whatever reason this year iisn't as bad for me as previous years. I feel the change of seasons gives me perspective. That said, I'll probably sneek down to the Carribean very soon to decompress.

Enjoy Hawaii.

We only got about 2 inches last night.

I still used the snow blower 'cause I didn't want to get up too early. It only takes me 10 minutes to snow blow the driveway, sidewalks, and front walk. It takes about 45 minutes to shovel the same.

I do miss the backroad snow driving that you describe. Best part of the winter.
