Originally Posted By chickendumpling That is the best kind, MissCandice! Glad you had a sunshiney day. And, sherrytodd, I am really surprised to hear that about Denver. I had no idea - I always picture Denver as snowy in the winter. Learn something new ever'day.

Originally Posted By avromark No, it's pleasurable if your the person who isn't shoveling or bundling the kiddies. It's just as adults we don't enjoy the chores part, or the suckage of our gas mileage at the moment. However come on it's so much easier to drift and do donuts and...

We went to bed on Christmas Eve all dejected and woke up on Christmas morning to a beautiful blanket of snow. It was really magical. Then we got robbed in Italy and our camera with all our snow photos was stolen At least we've got the memories.

That's where we were for Saturday, Sunday and Monday; up skiing. It was absolutely beautiful up there, but it was COLD! On Saturday at the top of the mountain in Parson's Bowl it was -24 F without the windchill. Ski patrol took care of a lot of people with frostbite that day. I couldn't believe they were even running the lift up there.

Originally Posted By Goofyernmost Yea, it's snowing here again for what seems like the hundreth consecutive day. It's the usual, stays pleasent and dry most of the day and then at drive time...it's a winter wonderland. I see a warmer climate in my future.
