Lianna, you can have my fair share of snow. I don't think I will be needing (or really wanting it) here in AZ. :(

And my mommy said I wasn't that good at sharing? :)

I lived in Vermont for six years, leaving in 1976--the year snow started falling in October (1975, of course) on the mountain we lived on at the Monkton-Vergennes county line, and was still on the ground in June!

 

I sometimes miss the snow a bit, but I certainly don't miss getting stuck on hills until all the black ice has been salted away. :)

 

I also remember with some disfavor the experience of waiting outside the trailer that served as a third-grade classroom at Monkton Central School in below-zero weather with a wind-chill factor of -40F for three hours until the administration deigned to let us take shelter in the auditorium. And the times when the snow was so deep it filled my boots. And my spit freezing before it hit the ground. And ....

 

On the whole, I'm glad to be back in California. :(

We have had it all this week, snow, freezing rain, sleet and now sub-zero temperatures. I'll be happy when spring gets here. :(

We had temps of 65 last Saturday afternoon. It dropped into the 20's that evening and then came the freezing rain and ice. We missed three days of school nad started two hours late on Thursday. No snow, just 3/4 inch of ice on everything. It's beautiful here today and looks like more ice is due in tomorrow afternoon. Yuck.

I went up into the mountains last weekend on a 4-wheelin' run (TOTAL BLAST!!!) and it went like this:

Go up the hill, look down at the clouds

Go down the hill, get rained on

Go up the hill, look down at the clouds

Go down the hill, get snowed on

Go up the hill, look down at the clouds

Go down the hill, get sleeted on

 

Was a lot of fun, and made a relatively easy trail rather interesting with the off-camber, muddy, ridge road sections with several-hundred foot drop-offs.

Coverage of the run should be in Primedia's Four Wheel and Off-Road magazine in a couple months if the pics came out OK... it was way overcast.

About 3 inches of snow here last night and today so far...and the gov't still wants us to be on time to work!! :) Oh-well! The snow is beautiful. Just wish I was out of the city, somewhere in the middle of several 14ers to enjoy it!!!

 

...for those of you unfamiliar with the term "14ers", it refers to a mountain peak above 14,000 ft. :dance:
