Ouch

The weather outside is frightful:gaahsnow turned to sleet turned to rain turned to sleet turned to snow) but the log fire is so delightful, along with knowing I'll be ok if the lights go out.

 

[UncleJoe]

The 35 mph wind doesn't help much either. :surrender:

 

[UncleJoe]

MAN THAT'S A LOT OF SNOW!!!

I'm viewing the Weather Channel and getting a kick watching a segment of how lots of panic is sweeping the food stores right now. A store employee was saying it was a madhouse.

Really.... it's just a day of bad weather and the herd is rushing to get staples like its hitting the fan Armageddon style.

This is a perfect example of how people react to the slightest of discomfort.

I've got 14" on my back deck and it's not even phasing me and I don't think I'll have to crack open any #10 cans of my Mountain House stash.

Life just isn't fair. We want snow and have very little.
