Don’t you miss this?
Posted by Bill on February 5, 2015 at 10:19 amJust wondered if all you former Northerners down there in Florida miss this stuff?
No, huh
I didn’t think so. Look what you are missing.

Bill,
I am going to ask Jean to make you write on the blackboard :”I will not post snow pictures” 100 times and make you stand in the corner.
Bad boy.

Talked to my mother back in Maine this morning. She said they have gotten 60 inches of snow in the last week.
At 530 this morning in the Keys it was 75 degrees! NO I don’t miss the snow at all. Rick

Rick,
WOW that’s alot of snow. You guys up north are tougher than us. I’m shoveling paths for the dogs through 2 feet of snow. I cannot imagine what I would do with all that snow. Glad to hear it’s so nice down in the Keys.
Jon,
Jean just made me plow the drive and make the paths for the dogs. Then she sent me to work- she said something about it being my chosen profession. We are looking forward to April in Alabama.

When we lived in the snow belt in western NY snow was a given. It was common for the annual snowfall to exceed 200 inches and the winter we left the season’s snow fall was 320 inches. We were in the spot most affected by the lake effect snows. My mother used to keep track of it by sweeping off the picnic table and measuring it each morning. The wind direction determined who got the snow, and how much because it was unfrozen Lake Erie that provided the moisture, and where we lived was downwind from the prevailing winter winds. A few degrees shift in the winds would leave one area in sunshine, and the area downwind getting slammed with whiteouts.
I am sure Bill and Jean are like we were. You get up in the morning and you accept whatever was dumped in the driveway over night because there is nothing you can do about it. I spent more hours plowing snow each year than I did mowing my lawn.
I sure don’t miss it.
