Well guys winter finaly hit upstate NY with a vengince. I moved to the southern tier 17 years ago and now I remember why. Eight feet on the ground snowing 5" an hour and a lot more on the way according to my daughter and brother. They live in the snow belt off the Eastern end of lake Ontario. I remember back in 66 it snowed hard and the wind blew for nearly two weeks. Barns and houses were coverd with 30 foot drifts and on the level it was documented at 15 feet, ah those were the days. No school for three weeks, waiting for the big rotery plows to cut the roads out. We all had plenty of food, the power stayed on and we just hunkered down.

All I know is I'm glad I live in SE Oklahoma. We had a record snowfall back in 2000, I think. It was 17" and it shut the whole county down. Now if that had happened back when I was a kid, that would have been something I would have appreciated. ....

Back home in SE Michigan it's 22 above. Here in 'sippi on the coast it's 72 and sunny---in fact the air just shut off. Makes me glad I sold my snow plow last Fall. ....
