Hi, Salsa! It's a picture off our porch of our complex's parking lot. We're in the north side of Bothell, almost Mill Creek. In fact, that's the top of our van in the foreground.

I love snow and those pics are about as close to snow as I will get here in Western Australia.![]()
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

We have a ridiculous amount of snow over here in my little valley. Just NUTS! Maybe 4 inches at this point? Can't see any of the grass poking up at all, my primroses have disappeared, the parking lot is a mess. There was just a car spinning like mad trying to get up the little hill in front of my building. They didn't make it.
And it's still dumping down huge fluffy flakes!

The weather was no where near that interesting in Portland today (I now split my time between PDX and SEA until we move down this summer).
I was outside today and felt the cold front coming through. Looked up at the sky and saw clouds. Snow wouldn't have surprised me but all we got was occasional periods of being the flat rock under the horse.
Tomorrow may be different.

Come on back, Trekhawk! You didn't get to see much of this part of the country, did you?
BIAK and Sg, didn't know you guys are moving to Portland. Nice for you all--I like Portland a lot-- but sad for us. Better have another party or two before you go. Maybe a winter breakfast party....

I got the job about two weeks ago after nearly three months of unemployment. Of the 100+ resumes I submitted, I got one response in Bellevue and five in the Portland area. If that's not a sign, I don't know what was.
Seattle was cool, but since we both grew up in the Portland area, the support system (read: child care) is much more well developed. Between SG's parents and brother, plus my oldest son, date nights may become a regular thing again.
Plus, I'll be supporting clients in the Puget Sound area so I'll be up there from time to time.

You can have all of mine. I like to visit it once in a while in the MOUNTAINS and I have to say it's kind of neat for a week or two in the winter, but it's mid April and I'm ready for spring. Yes, spring is wet in the PNW but there's usually at least a peek of sun once in a while. In fact, last Saturday was very nice. We spent most of the day outside in the sun.
Well, okay, if there's present I guess I could live it for a short while longer. Hmm....I hope there's wool in mine. When does Santa get here?
Hi, Love! Sorry things didn't work out. Now you know why I didn't want to try to drive in that.

I don't fault you for not wanting to make the drive. It would have required benadryl to keep the kids from killing each other. Or a nice bit of scotch for you so you didn't really care about all the commotion and nonsense from the back seats, the other drivers...

snow... I guess the idea of only taking shorts & short sleeved shirts on our trip to Canada just kinda went down the tube...
