-9 this morning on my way to work, and what looks like snow about 2" deep I think is the air froze and fell on the ground.

Nope just dusty.

Don, after the grader goes thru, I bet it's fun to get across the berms that they leave behind.

-13 early this morning. I really, really, really, really hope that the price of heating oil has gone down sufficiently by the time they fill me up that I don't end up eating rice and beans for the rest of the year.

I wish, I'm at work. Sun was out when I came to work, so I drove my SHO and left my 4x4 at home. It's 25 miles home, but I should be out of here by 3:30.

How's everyone over in the Valley holding up under all that snow and ice? My son sent me some pictures and it looks like he has as much or more snow than I do.
