Im stuck home too, my hubby took my car in to work, b/c his is snowed in and i didnt want him to have to dig it out this morning...

[Dakota's Mommy]

WOW, I can't get over how much snow some parts of the US got this weekend!

[popcornbird]

OMG! OMG! OMG!!!!!!!!! That is *SO* COOL! I WANT SNOW! I WANT SNOW! I WANT SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We were watching the news yesterday and when they showed pics on NJ, I told my Dad "OMG, if only we could get all that snow! That would be my dream come true!!!!!" He said, " NO WAY! I've lived in Minnesota and I KNOW what that kind of snow is! Its awful! I would NEVER want to live in such a place again! " I'm STILL jealous. I want to see my city, my house, my car, all under a white blanket like that! It would be so cool! Today the temperature here is 55, and I'm so cold. Well, that's cause I have the window open. I'm going to close it. My dad says snow is fun when we go for vacation for 2 days or a week, but he says living in THAT MUCH snow is a nightmare! I'm STILL jealous! "sigh" Mind sending me some of your snow?

The last time my part of MI saw snow like that was in December of 2000.

Here's a shot of my car the morning after:


Stay safe and warm!

oh sure, you expect us to believe you have the first invisible
car in the united states!

Wow! I bet your muscles are aching from all of that shoveling! Mine sure are! Your pictures are terrific and you should print them out to show your boss what you were dealing with!!! Hurry Spring!!!!!!!!!!!

Boy am I glad I moved to Michigan when I did! Connecticut got slammed yet AGAIN!!!! Everytime my daughter calls with a snow report, I laugh . We have only about 2".

Kim, you cannot tell me there's a car buried under all that show??

[Miss Meow]

Wow!

What if it snows for days and you can't get to work? Do you just keep shovelling and shovelling your way out, or just hope no one else can get to work or to appointments and stay home to make yourself a hot chocolate?

I've only ever seen snow once so this is all very fascinating!

when i need to 'experience' snow i go to the neighbor's house and move the switch on the fridge from 'cube' to 'crushed'....
i was wondering why it never snows in the southern hemisphere...time for an experiment!!!! i took our the globe into the kitchen and poured flour over it.........aha!.........

kidding-i hope you get the experience of being around when it
falls..........actually there are some terrifyingly exciting things to do.....one is drive! there is a condition called 'black ice" a puddle will freeze on the asphalt and when you hit it....wwwwwhhhheeeeee.....it's the time that the hospitals get the most heart attack victims! people go to shovel snow and blow
the ol' pump out.....water freezes on the limbs of trees and power lines...........the weight collapses them....no power until the
local power company comes out........the worst part is hearing the report of the elderly that freeze because of the lack of heat in their homes....

I think I'll pass on the snow, heart attacks and black ice for now! Please don't give up your job for a career in tourism

SOME snow is fun- but when i see those poor people back east
shoveling and driving it makes me feel a tad bit humble.......
in california we only get snow when we want it........of course it depends on which movie studio is filming what.....

[mugsy]

yes but in Caly you end up with mudslides, torrential rains, wild fires, and earthquakes.....hmmmm...I think I'll take the snow.

[mugsy]

[shais_mom]

HOLY CRAP!!
I was thinking "what car?"
Stay safe and warm!!

My first husband was French and had grown up in Morocco. So he was not used to snow and could not slide on the ice. He absolutely hated it. Of course he was much more endangered to fall than anyone else.

Regarding all of us it looks as if the snowy people are envying Popcornbird and Amberlee for their cherry blossoms and they are envying us for not being able to go to work. We have lots of snow here at the moment (though not like NJ) and sun all over. That's the best time. It should keep over the weekend and if it does I'll go skating on our moor lakes around.
