Snow Snow Snow Snow

Yes Vermontcat, we were at O'Hare. We arrived about 12:30 to meet a friend who was traveling with us. They announced the cancellation of our flight and rebooking onto a 4:00 flight. We decided to get lunch and wait. We went through security where I was required to remove my belt, jewelry, and finally my shoes (darn underwire bras!) We had lunch....I never know which is worse....the quality or the price...or the plastic flatware (No knifes!) They announced a delay of the 4:00 so my husband and I decided to get a glass of wine. We were carded (but so was the gray-haired lady with a walker in front of us.) Frankly, I think they want to check if you have enough money not your age.

Then they cancelled the flight and I spent 45 minutes on the phone rebooking for the first flight the next morning....which was cancelled.....

Edwina's Secretary, my husband was already on his plane by the time you got to the airport.
Sorry that you didn't get to NYC.

I did take some snow pictures today, I will try to post them later.

That was so much fun! Makes me want snow even more! He he he!

Edwina's Secretary, when I travel...........I always be sure to wear clothes with no metal in them. No zippers, no snaps, only buttons, and shoes with laces.........not straps with metal parts in them. When you don't beep, it makes things soooo much easier! :D

Everyone with snow is so lucky. All we get is hot and hotter! It's just now cooling off down here. Can't wait to get to Maryland! Want to build a snowman.

Okay, I measured the snow on the sidewalk in front of the hosue where I hadn't yet shoveled at all - 22 1/2 inches, and the bottom foot had definitely settled a lot, so we got about 2 feet of snow, no exaggeration. There's still a little snow falling, but it's supposed to end tonight. I've shoveled and shoveled - and taken some pictures, hopefully, they'll come out okay, I'll upload and share later tonight.

Wow 2 feet!!! I wish we had got at least 2 inches :(

While you are uploading pictures Karen....maybe we could see some from the summer trips?!?

Karen, hope you share AFTER taking a nice long hot bath to work out the kinks from all of that shoveling of snow!


22 1/2 inches BBBRRRRRR.

Here's one shot from today. Most of the pictures didn't come out well because it was STILL snowing! And so the sky was dark, and the snowflakes caught the flash and look huge and alien/angel-like. This picture is of the giant cliff of snow that formed pver a cprner of our wall. I asked the two boys to stand underneath it so you could see how impressive the shelf was!

I, or maybe Paul, will take more pictures tomorrow, when it is SUPPOSED to be a brighter day and not snowing some time during daylight hours!

I'm so jealous... I don't even remember what snow is like. :(

I wish we would get some snow here, but I guess we just don't live in the right place for it.

My daughter is going to PA with her boy friend and his family for a visit. She is hoping to see some snow.

Oh where, oh where is our snow??

Somebody send us some snow.

I heard this morning that New Brunswick and parts of Nova Scotia got hit with 56 cm of white stuff and maybe another 10 today.

I'm soooo glad I'm in Toronto!!! I just l like a dusting for Christmas, I don't need anymore.

I agree with you. I'm glad we didn't get that. It's raining here right now. We are going to get about 10mm of rain today. The little bit of snow we did have will most likely be gone after that. A little dusting on christmas eve will be fine with me!

I just hope that all of our snowbound Pet Talkers are doing well!!! I can't believe all that snow!!!!! :eek:

Most of our snow is gone. Just a little on the grass. It is supposed to snow later this week, but I don't remember how much.

I will take all that snow over ice any day. Ice didn't bother me when I was younger. Now I have a fear of slipping and falling.
