Welcome to the Northeast Do you have a shovel?

Holy crap. I thought the cold front that came through here (north of San Antonio) was cold!

GREAT second question: "I've got a better question, what did you do last night that left your car on the lawn". We'll anxiously await your explanation!

That is nice to see!!! Especially after hearing all winter from the southerners about how great they have it without snow. Enjoy it. Did you consider making a snowman?

It could be worse ... it could have been here in Richmond! How do you get your driveway to stay so nice and green?

Makes us here in the Northeast feel just a little better. Now add another 110" to that and call it Massachusetts.........

I remember about 4 or 5 years ago (Dec 9th was the date), a bunch of us went out to Vegas for the weekend. The plans included a drive to Tempe Arizona on Sunday, to watch the NY Giant, Arizona Cardinal game. While in the middle of the Desert, a snow storm began and actually got so bad we could hardly see; snow blind. That was the first time I had ever seen Cactus covered in snow. Your post is the second!!!!
