Bwahahaha! Good one.
blowing snow . . .
a Volvo broadsides
the ski parking tram
first star--
the first chirp
by the first cricket
And, I'm told, no two of them are alike.
Hi David!
This view brings a chuckle....it depends where you
live of course...in our area, we're all used to the
snow -- and prepared for it!
But on newscasts I see folks in more southern climes
skidding all over the roads...

P.S. Bill's comment is priceless!
Hi, Lary. You must have smarter folks living in your region. Here, around Albany, NY, we average over 60 inches of snow a year, but the first couple times we get winter precipitation you'd think the locals had never seen the stuff before.
