Batman - that doesn't seem like much snow for MO. Doesn't it snow much there? I would have thought this was nothing for you guys...
That's a lot of snow to fall in one night in MO. If it had been colder when the front moved in, it would have been a lot worse...the first few hours came down as freezing rain/sleet instead of snow.

I found out that my Girlfriend's dog Rocket is more scared of snow than he is of water. The only water he likes is the kind that he drinks or the kind he pees.

The girl next door has the coolest Golden Retriever ever...name's Fred. He was confused as hell by the white stuff. Normally he's all over me if I'm outside and he's free, but there was no way he was trudging through the snow to say "hi"

I'm not stuck in the house...I drove around all day in the snow. I searched out a few large parking lots that had not been plowed just to have a little fun. I felt like I was in Fast And Furious Columbia Drift.
