    Where in NC are you? I have a nephew that lives in Hickory. He says they very seldom get snow. The storms come over the mountains and by the time it snows, it's farther east than them.

    I would laugh

    However I would only be laughing at myself, since Indiana has much more white on the ground.

    Pretty pictures Carol. I was also going to ask what part of NC do you live. I have a friend in Warsaw, Charlotte, and Hickory.

    We're right on the beach near Morehead city. We might get the white stuff every five years or so. It's fun, but people here are safest in the house, rather than on the road. No idea how to drive on ice under snow.

    My nephew says that the foggier it is there, the faster people drive with no head lights!

    The pictures are nice but you can have the snow. I'd rather look at them with flowers and sunshine. I'm not a snow person. dooley

    Your snow is beautiful but I don't envy you of it at all.The weatherman said a nice day tomorrow near 80 degrees but a cold front on its way and rain.
