    It was snowing here earlier now its pouring buckets. I really want snow. I just got some new snow shoes and was hoping to use them on Saturday. I should have known - if I get snow shoes, it will never snow again..... I'll have to head north.

    Come up to Vermont. I'd say we have about 2 feet of new snow so far where I am (and it's still falling fast).

    Went out and snow shoed for about 2.5 miles on a local trail. Going out the wind was blowing sleet in my face, but coming back was nice.The snow was perfect for snow shoeing. I feel like I'm working at about 50% of my capacity, feel pretty weak once i start moving, but today is the first day i feel somewhat human just doing regular things. My poor husband just went out to snow blow the driveway and got the front mat caught in the blower, because he had thrown it on the ground and then the snow covered it. Now he is out there swearing, trying to get it out. . .

    Saw your picture Lisa. Looks great. Today is beautifully sunny, but freezing. I am deciding if I will go snow shoeing after work or go take a nice "centergy" class with a little warm up on the elliptical. Normally, I would prefer to be outside, but I feel like I should take it easy with my recovery from bronchitis. I have a full weekend of x country skiing and snow shoeing planned, and I have next week off. Anyone interested in going x country or snow shoeing on Tues., Wed. or Thursday????

    Too bad Concord MA is on the "wrong" end of MA from me!

    Maybe. Depends on how things are going at work. You going locally or driving somewhere? The current crust isn't good for skiing except at a machine-groomed place.
    Oil is good, grease is better.
