and i've had plenty of opportunity to do so lately. we're up to around 17 inches here in northern colorado and we could see another eight to ten before this thing is over.
here's my (broken down) car this morning.
hate driving in it, love what it's doing for the snowpack.

(21,020 posts)When I lived in the city, I loved how it muffled the sounds of traffic.
Now I live in the woods, and it's quiet enough to hear the snow hit the ground. It whispers
shhh shhh shhh
Being inside during a snowstorm is like being safe and warm in a cocoon

So I was pretty surprised when I put her out a half hour later...
Not comparable to what you are getting, but, hey, it's the Four friggin' Corners...

(25,771 posts)His house is in the village, though
He will not see me stopping her
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and icy lake
The darkest evening of the year
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake
The woods are lovely, dark and deep
But I have promises to keep
And miles to go before I sleep
And miles to go before I sleep
