Hi All,
The midwest has been hit pretty hard with the white stuff today.  It was only the 2nd time in 20 years that my company shut dow because of snow.  We are pretty hardy here.
This is the view of my back deck. There's 10 inches of snow built up on my railing. My next door neighbor is an angel & plowed me out so I could get in my drive.

I'm jealous... we're getting that same storm now but it's is the form of rain and thunderstorms! Can you believe it? 60 degrees and T-storms in new England on Dec. 1! We've broken some records for highest temps in the last 2 days. I WANT SNOW!!! I'm comin' over, Amy... after I pick up Laura Lynn... don't know if she likes snow or not but she's comin' too! Snowball fights!!!! :dance:

Amy, we're neighbors.  I live 17 miles east of Green Bay so we got hit also.  Ihad to cancel an appointment in Green Bay today and the kids were sent home form school early.  Sure is pretty.

Daphne, I heard about your weather today...'freaky' is all I can say about that.

I am new here and I must say I love the photo's. Going on to Christmas I am getting home sick. I now live in Australia and was born in Sweden, have been here for over 30 years now. But I do wish we did have some snow here this time of the year. Not very Christmasy when it is 40° outside. Ho Ho Ho.

Ah, beautiful!
Down here in Missouri we got the same storm system, but here we got mostly ICE and SLEET and very COLD temps. YUCK.

Well one would think Minnesota would get some of that snow...We Minnesotans are wondering what is going on. All we have is brown grass!! With luck we may have a few flurries in a couple of days....

So Amy, any kind of picture with snow is appreciated since all I can do is pine for some....And like Lena, wishing for some snow for Christmas.

It is so beautiful here in Colorado Springs right now. bear_original  Snow started falling this morning (on top of a bit we got earlier this week), and I just love it when it comes down in large flakes. It's so pretty! Hubby (Garth) and I moved here in March of 2005 from the Seattle area, where we lived for four years and got used to a little bit of cold and snow...before that, we grew up in Southern California, in Anaheim, home of Disneyland, where it does not snow. So I am just like a little kid when it snows here: I'm always peeking out the window. :dance:  (Thank God both Garth and I work from home; I don't know how well our little car would do in the white stuff trying to get to work!)

Enjoy the snow, all!

Isn't it beautiful, Charlotte? I am ready to jump off the computer and go work on a bear (who has been sooo patient with me not working on him!), and I'll be facing the sliding glass door so I can watch the snow falling. Think I'll also grab a cup of steaming tea. Enjoy!
