We are still getting less snow than you are. Just the way the wind
blows round here. But I do wish it would start to melt. I'm bored with
winter. Of course my viewpoint may be colored by my being in some late
stage of the flu. for whatever reason I especially hate the puking.
Also if I go outside the cold air starts me on a coughing fit. Bleah.

We got snow today! We never get snow after coming back from Carnaval.

Bah. Don't talk to me about snow: I am taking care of three
different driveways this year.

I take care of two but neither is paved and one of them is about 600' long
with a spring just uphill that produces almost a continous flow of water
that runs down about 100' of the driveway producing what my sister-n-law
caches "the gorge". She got stuck in it last week.
