    Heard from my son last night. Left Anaheim on schedule, the airline telling them "no delays." Of course, being a semi-native New Englander, he was skeptical. Their connection was in Phoenix, where they promptly were told that that couldn't get to Philly until Monday. Funny, how the tough Marine calls Mom and Dad in these situations! Anyway, since he's stranded in the "desert of his birth," as he puts it, he called my DH's sister and will be visiting his aunt and uncle, and grandmother, along with his wife's cousin.
    We have about 8-10 inches, but it seems to be tapering down. South of here, it's a mess, with a lot of power outages. Just about a half hour NW of here, there's no snow at all.

    It is definitely a blizzard here. We have probably 15-18 inches although it is really hard to tell because of the wind and all of the drifting. We have drifts of 2-2 1/2 feet right outside the back door. Fortunatley I don't have to be anywhere today!

    Here's the view out my front door and off the deck, looking down the hill.

    Crankin - pretty!

    Um - we had frost this morning....

    Y'all stay safe in blizzard country. Is this where you switch from bikes to snowshoes and x-country skis?

    Beth, I thought the same thing when I went out just a little bit ago- we have frost. I'm SO glad it's not feet of snow. I just LOVE all the pictures!!!! Snow is gorgeous when looking at it on the internet.

    Just got in from shovelling the driveway and digging out the truck (with a push broom). My beautiful Seven ID8, which lives in the laundry room between rides, has been reduced to a titanium and carbon hat and mitten dryer!
