Yup... I might have done that once... or twice...
That sounds like fun. I've never seen snow besides the 1" we get down here every few years.

Guess I need to get out more.

We are 3" less of rain for what we normally have at this time of year, so yes, even snow would be nice! We need rain!

We've had 6.51 inches since July 1, 2011, compared to 11.59 by this time last year. Last year was an unusually wet year, and this year is unusually dry. My 5 year average for this time of year is 8.35.

If all goes according to plan, we will be sitting on a lake watching fireworks on July 4th. They always start the fireworks show with a couple of fellows snow skiing down the adjacent mountain slope decorated with flares. They have to get them to the jump off point with a snow cat.

Hey Bruce, if it was the devil, it would be hot!!!!

OK, that would explain the street steaming this morning while the snow was falling!
