Snow????????? here?????????????
It looks like you guys in the snow belt finally sent some to the south. In SC we do not like snow so we might just send it back. I enjoyed making a snow man with my granddaughter who is nine but I still don't like snow. All the children enjoyed it very much. I also read that there was snow of some description in 49 states with Hawaii the only one withou

We have had two snows here this winter, ~6" 10 days ago, and ~1-2" Fri PM -Sat AM. The good thing is that most everything shuts down with the mere prediction of snow and we just wait until it melts away in a day or two. It was unusually cold along with the first snow, so I had to break down on the 4th day and pull out a shovel to clear the deck and stairs by the door so we wouldn't slip and fall when taking the dog out for a walk. The dog (s h i t zu, it's the name of the breed! ******* censors!) (HOLY COW! if I can say that??? Dumb... is now a curse word???) HATED going outside, the snow had crusted over and she would break thru the crust about every other step. The noise and sudden drop scared the daylights out of here. She didn't mind the second snow because it stayed fluffy. She would stick her nose in it and plow it as she sniffed the ground. She would come up with a snow beard!

Our first winter back in Tucson, has turned out to be a really wet one with lots of pretty snow on the mountains. Nice. My new job takes me to Mt. Graham about 30% of my time, where the observatory is at 10,471 feet. Turns out this is the worst winter anybody has seen in 26 years. We've had 8 feet of the white stuff up here. Really pretty, really cold and a B*tch to drive on when its hard packed snow on a dirt road.
AXracer,
We too have one of those dogs. I'm told the way to spell and say it is Shih Tzu, shee tzoo. Ours is a tiny little thing all of maybe 7 pounds some uncareing person dumped in the desert. My sister and brother-in-law luckily found her and we took her into our tribe of four cats and a dog. She must have come from a puppy mill and was abused as she had a broken jaw at one time. We love her to pieces and NOBODY will ever abuse or abandon her again.
You guys can keep the snow. Me, I'll just travel up to it when I have to go climb the mountain. AXracer, you'd love the road up here. Its called Swift Trail, off of US 191 South of Safford, AZ.

Hi, I had trouble even finding Iron Station on the map! You're about 3 hrs from us. We autocross in the Charlotte area a few times a year.

Thats a great pic, looks like Canada, not SC, or something...!! Here in central OK we've had three separate storms leaving snow like that pic, usually only a little snow/ice "Wintery Mix" to quote local forecaster Gary England LOL. A good thing about all this crazy weather should mean a not very "buggy" spring.
