SNOW?! 4wd, I can still see some earth sticking out! Just south of Buffalo, they woke up to 18 inches on the ground this morning, with another 6 on the way. And I've got to go to a pre-planning convention in Buffalo, where all the big shots are flying in TODAY. They would normally hold this shindig in January, but someone smarter than I said, "hey, let's move it up to November so we avoid the bad weather." And the head honcho is coming in from Miami. Hehehe...........

Go ahead and ask me why I moved out of "just south of Buffalo" and to California.

Went to my parent's place yesterday, in Iowa, barely enough of a cover to say it was, 20 miles south of them, no cover. Cental Iowa got way more than they did. I was out unlaoding the nephew's car in the rain and snow that day, lots of fun with no axles under it...

Love the snow! Ski areas opening up around here. Brighton (SLC, Utah) yesterday, The Canyons this weekend, most places should be open by Thanksgiving. And the big one, Jackson Hole, on Dec. 3rd (3 feet already). No sign of global warming so far here.
