we have an inch, we have an inch, we already have an inch!
Call me childish, when it snows I get giddy. I love it. I feel lighthearted. Mrs. V. & I just went out to see it and it's all over everything and it's silent. I walked out on the porch and said, "ooh, and it's foggy, too;" she said, "that's not fog, that's the snow falling." Ooooh. Man, this is so cool.

I'm a beach bum. I'll never get used to this.

ssssnnnnnow!

1. We got three or four inces here in Ohio
Temperature was in the teens all day. I hate this kind of weather. I used to be less sensitive to the cold, but as I've gotten older it really bites into me.

14. My Sister Lives In Santa Barbara And Teases Me About How...
... lovely her weather is.

I don't mind it really... not much anyway. As long as I'm not "trapped" at home with no way to get out.

I'm glad you're enjoying it.

-- Allen

P.S. Did you visit my cousin's lesbian art web site?

17. Los Alamitos…here….
Today was a mild mid-60’s day…nice and sunny….
Kinda alarmed that my Bermuda lawn is starting to come out of dormancy this early…
Decided, what the heck…started my overseeding program early….
Other side of coin…friggin’ yard work in January….it’s all up-hill from here on.

12. Chicago has 5 inches and more expected tonight.
I will be happy to send it to you ;)

Snow lost its magic for me back in 3rd grade (1957) when the nuns told us not to eat it any more because we could get radiation sickness from it, thanks to fall-out from atmospheric nuclear testing. From that day to this, I have hated snow.

15. I like snow when it's soft and fluffy and the wind isn't blowing,
but not otherwise.
