    We never lost power, but many of our friends have had problems with service. We're just wondering - can we possibly ship the snow we plow to Vancouver for the Olympics? It sounds like they need it. I'll post more pictures when I can get out - our door is frozen shut!

    Never lost power here, just ambition.

    I'm here and doing fine, but already have cabin fever. Thankfully, we never lost power, and the only damage is some tree limbs snapped under the weight of the snow.

    It's a bright, clear, cold morning, and everything looks so beautiful - fresh and clean - for now anyway.

    We got a revised total - closer to 2 feet now, but the drifts are terrible. Temps are supposed to stay below freezing all week, so we won't get much melting. And joy-joy-joy - another snow storm Tuesday night/Wednesday. The forecasters are tiptoeing around that one, but I heard one say that it could be another nor'Easter. We've already broken old records - this is the first winter ever in this area, to have 2 storms in one season that exceeded 20" per storm.

    When does it all end??? - April maybe?????

    I'm fine here, Candace. However there were a lot of power outages in the Pittsburgh area due to the heavy, wet snow breaking tree limbs and the limbs knocking the lines down. About 100,000 still without power.

    It finally stopped here around 7 last night. What a MESS!

    We walked out around the house to clean out around our heat pump and it was up to my knees! We're never going to get outta here!

    BTW, here is a pic of the big one in '96 when we lived in Balto. Kinda like what we have now, and what we never expected to see again.



    Looking back on this, why was I smiling?????

    When I got home from work Friday, it started snowing. By Saturday morning, we had maybe 12" of snow! This is looking out my backdoor Sunday morning!

    What neighborhood is that? It looks like where Coop and I lived a long time ago - that was Westowne.
