sorry - just can't get the pic to post - we have a 14 foot pile of snow in our cul-de-sac - the city just keeps piling it up without removing it!

It seems like just last month that more than a few of you were complaining that winter would never seem to get here. Oh. Wait. It was last month. Enjoy the snow! It's 13 degrees with a windchill approaching 0 here in Nashville (global warming strikes again), and I'd feel a lot better about my run this morning if I at least had some snow to crunch around in. And by the way, that huge pile 'o snow is pretty funny ... if it's not in your street. Wink

Great picture. Does it come with a chair lift?

OH! I was wondering where there's that much snow! Now it makes sense... We're finally getting the cold weather (15F right now) in Chicago, but the snow isn't really sticking around. Frankly, the snow doesn't bother me as much as the complete lack of sunshine for days at a time... and that must be even worse up there!

Now's the perfect time to start digging a snow house inside the pile... (Make sure entrance is away from the street!) Big grin

I used to do that when I was a kid. I kinda miss it...

When that melts - I'll be glad that I don't live in the house directly behind it. Wink

I don't think they let kids do that anymore... something about kids dying when their tunnels collapsed... seriously! Dead

Luckily I escaped... Plus, my piles were never more than about 4 feet high...

Bad Claire!!! I'm standing across from my house Shocked

!!! Actually not a problem - we don't get any direct sunlight in the winter, so the snow usually doesn't melt at all until the spring - I figure we have a good 2 months left to go. Plenty of time for the city to get around to our sub-division Roll eyes

Thats all the snow they have gotten so far up there? Man the iditerod is going to be hit or miss!!! Shocked

I did notice Aleyeska and Blackcomb-Whistler were the two places getting massive amounts of snow around Christmas. I am very disappointed - I was looking for potential jobs up in Alaska for when (if?) I gradumate and there were none in my field. Alas. I guess I am stuck in the warm lower-48 for another 5 or so years.

How I feel these days... This helps too!
