    We have about 2 1/2 feet on the ground from last week's storm; and it is coming down again. Started about 2 hours ago and there are probably about 2 more inches, at least on the ground again. I'm watching out my window at work! What a Winter Wonderland!

    Ahh, the question where does all the snow go? In A GREAT BIG PILE! and, it keeps getting deeper and deeper until you can't hardly throw the snow up there anymore!

    My back is already killing me from last week! Can't wait to get out there and shovel some more.

    I'll probably have at least 1/2 a foot to get off the driveway before I drive in.

    FUN in the GREAT OUTDOORS We'll see what it is like tomorrow. We are supposed to get snow all week; but alas, I'm heading down to Tucson on Wednesday so no white christmas for me. That is, I'm heading to Tucson if I can drive out of here!

    It's puking at Flagstaff? My son who goes NAU will be overjoyed to have to dig his car out ( a subaru no less) when he gets back after the holiday.

    The snowblower we bought this fall was supposed to insure a dry season the year we can't ski!!

    Here's a few pictures I snapped as we took a walk around the park across from our neighborhood. Frankie the Pug had fun!

    Winter Wonderland!

    Tastes good, Mom!

    Those photos are so great - thanks for posting them.

    Hot and humid here - storms this morning so I didn't go for a morning ride, and then it heated up so quickly, it was too hot for me to go this afternoon.

    You could send just a box or two of your snow this way if you have too much

    Now don't hurt me, but the arid west did need this snow pack....

    I'll send you some sea level rise if I could too.

    We got the day off from snowing yesterday as well as warmer tempetures too. Made a huge mess! However, we got over 10 inches of new snow this morning. That brings our total to over 4' of snow in the last two weeks. We spent christmas eve day and christmas day shoveling off the roof of the house, garage and my sewing studio. Another storm is expected to arrive tomorrow afternoon. It looks like we may have to go another round on the roofs. What a way to bring in the new year. bikerHen

    Yikes I hope you get a break from the snow. Its hard to think of you all in such cold conditions when we are expecting another day around 105 degrees. We could do with a little of your cold down this way.

    This morning it's nearly 50 degrees. It's melting like mad. Our street is just plain nasty with the slush and gravel. Bye-bye, Snow!!!!
    Tis better to wear out than to rust out....
