Bummer Nolan. I'd say there are definitely better deals to be had out there.

Scott that is great looking weather down there.
Lisa we are stuck inside too, only it's just rain rain rain all day long.
Tomorrow we get to go pick up the grandsons at the top of Snoqalmie pass.
I'll be driving the truck for that trip.

We're back from sushi time. The sushi was good but not the best we have ever had. Just ok...
No clubs tonight as it became evident during dinner that Susan was a little looped from the martinis before dinner so I just brought her home. She's in a happy place...

I think that would be just to cool. I remember the blizzard of 78 in Indy. We were out of school for 3 weeks. It was great until my Mom made us walk to the store a mile or so away to buy some food.

Hey Pete good day today. No water pump today. I'm planning on tommorow. J-L is going to spend a few hours with her aunt. I hope that it dosent rain though.
If there was snow it'd look like New England! Nice clear blue sky we had a lot of clouds today and it was chilly though

The view out their front windows is a real hilly part of the orchard with a decent sized pond in the middle. They've got a canoe there for it that they told my brother he was free to use at any time and that any time the dog wanted to go swimming in it she could and that their dog would love to go swimming with the pup.
Then out their back window you see nothing but orchard. Then on either end when you look out there's the pack house on one side and another house on the other.
I just got back in from doing the brake line on the Jeep and then rotating the tires.

My son-in-law snuck me an e-mail today with a picture that he snapped. This is a Russian TU-95 bomber that overflew his position aboard the USS John C. Stennis. He's a Marine and is attached to the Death Rattlers, a Marine fighter squadron.
Edit:
And here is a news story to accompany the picture:

Even during the big Colorado blizzard in 2003 we were only out of school for a few days, and we got 4 feet!
It's not to bad out there right now. 6"-8".
So when you say you think its cool, you mean cool like this?
That was a blizzard back in Denver in 2006, I think. Yep Christmas 2006.

Blizzard of 1978
It probably wasn't so bad as you remember...but a city like Indy that doesn't get a lot of snow, they were unprepared for it and didn't have the equipment to clean it up.
Edit: here's utube video of the blizzard of 2003. This is not my video, but where I was at we got similar amounts of snow. I was in Fort Collins in college at the time. I was one of only two people that could get out of the apartment complex parking lot. I had chains and an 86 Toyota PU that was unstoppable in the snow.

Here is something on it. It says that the blizzard was for 2 days, although in IN you will get out of school just for flurries. I am sure that it took forever for the clean and that is why we were out. The odd thing is the middle school and the high school were only 2 blocks away.
