South Jersey, and it's snowing again!

Last February, my wife turned down a job transfer to Florida. What was she thinking! I could be rolling down A1A with the tops out now, instead of getting the shovel out now.

Snow is natures fertilizer.

It contains nitrogen and will green up your grass and be good for your garden. It will have you mowing the lawn more often in the spring, in addition to shoveling snow now. What doesn't kill you will make you stronger. Ahhh...the Northeast.

I think I'm going to hang around in the Southern California forum for a while. This white stuff is very depressing.

Once we get through this we will be living in one of the most beautiful parts in the country, with no worries about tornados, hurricanes, mud slides, earthquakes, killer heat, love bugs or wildfires (did I miss anything?).

Though it looks like we might have a shot at government getting a little better now. Or is that just wishful thinking.

Nothing but rain here, and lots of it. Plenty of massive puddles on the roads.
I hope it stays as rain.
