Sometimes it can really be a pain in the ass but you have to admit it sure is beautiful.


Sometimes we just need to stop and regroup.


Things can be right in front of you but if you don't pay attention you will never see them.


Now excuse me while I get the friggen snow blower out and try to get this crap off my driveway...lol
;D ;D ;D ;D

Adrian and Rtaz.  I share your thoughts  :cooldude:

First snow here too, I inch or so, melting already.  One thing that I don't have to do anymore is shovel snow.  The apartment owners will be taking care of that.  That leaves me only to b**** about why they aren't getting around to it.

We had a little dab here Monday night the 28th. :crazy2: It was gone the next morning. :2funny: Having lived in snow country before and spent a goodly portion of my life driving over the road i will say this-in my mind at least winter still SUCKS. ;) I know i know-shows up every year but dat do not mean i GOTS ta like it. :uglystupid2: In fact i should be able to get a ride in tommorrow iffin the weather guessers have it close to right. :cooldude: But if i duz get snowed in got a freezer full of food and enough coffee to see me through it. 8) You way up north folks enjoy the start of what most likely will be another long un. :2funny: RIDE SAFE.

 Been thinking about getting a dirt bike and setting it up with a ski set up.

http://images.travelpod.com/users/jennykelly/45.1273251397.ski-motorbike-ktm.jpg

Met some folks who ride the logging roads out of Greenwater over to a resort called whistling Jacks near Naches a few times each winter. sounds like fun! :cooldude:

sittin in the hot tub while it snows is good stuff

Then lie down in the snow after

Then go back in the hot tub

with a cold beer in your hand of course

We had our 1st snow weeks ago in NY, glad you folks are catchin up

73 degrees here right now.
My Dad saved us from Ol' man Winter in 1963. He'd kick the snow shovel from one side of the yard to the other and tell us to never live where ya need one of those things.
I guess So.Cal was as far as he could get us away from it.

Like solo1 said, we got our 1st snow yesterday. But we got about 5". Had 3" on my truck before I left work. Had to hurry home and put up my mailbox protector.  :roll:
