She hates winter and we only get maybe one or teo snows a year anymore. As soon as it starts gettng dark early and the temps fall below 55 she goes into "hate winter" mode. Me, I like a good snow fall or three but since I don't work anymore it doesn't bother me so much.Dr. Monkey Von Monkersteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14370062692837972451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30103302.post-16588586314605517982007-11-20T10:01:00.000-05:002007-11-20T10:01:00.000-05:00When Ben and I were in Texas recently we wondered ...When Ben and I were in Texas recently we wondered how some rancher friends of ours plowed when it snowed as they had no driveway.<BR/><BR/>(tee hee-it's an inside joke with us that goes back to pondering the steep mountain roads in Jamaica: "how do they get up these in the winter?" -a common contemplation for anyone's driveway in Wisconsin.

Even in DE we had 20 inches in the blizzard of 03. Snow has a way of changing your lifestyle, for sure. During the last snow storm I mentioned, both DH and I were stuck inside the house for three straight days. I had to put the knives away :o)<BR/><BR/>I still miss the pretty falling snow...Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040099513110890878noreply@blogger.com
