the view out my front door...

and in case you can't make it out, my mailbox is lying nearly upside down--a casualty of city snowplows.

It's not really all that bad here...a little rain, some wind, a bit cool for a sweatshirt. But opinions do vary!  H^^ Steve

Hey we need the snow in order to fill up the resevoirs again.  Even the rivers.  I am seeing parts of the Kaw river I've never seen before.  Also think of all the exercise you get shoveling  or pushing the snow blower. LL~ LL~  Anyway I wouldn't trade places with you as the last of our snow is already gone.  Oh, and I feel for the little deer and snow man. :'(

the deer is disappeared completely.  They have lights on 'em; the snow kinda glows where the deer is.

We've actually had officially nearly 5' of snow this winter, but of course it packs down, and sublimates, and once in awhile even melts a little.
