    Barb, thank you for the link. Glad to hear Jerry is maintaining his sense of humor in the face of 22" of snow!

    The wind howled and the snow flew sideways as it sculpted weird shapes around anything in it's path. The power did not fail, something 700,000 other people did experience. The morning was colored white except the birds at the feeder.

    Pictures taken out the windows before I do battle with the elements.

    We have enough snow on the ground now, I will look for a weather station with a good forecast. I understand Toni wants some snow. I wonder if there is such a thing as a storm traffic controller? We could divert the storms to Texas. :)
