I'd rather ride in the snow than the rain.

Hurts, for sure!  I'm here in NE Ohio, and we've had three rather nice days for the end of March.  But I have fingers crossed between now and the first part of May.  Buck up, Adk, soon we'll have our day(s) ...... we'll be enjoying some beautiful NE USA spring days about the time temps down South become hellish.  Just takes us a while to get there.

WOW! You had one of the big ones. Here in south central KS I think back in December we had a two inch drift from a one inch snow.

Yep. I saw you guys are supposed to get hammered.  Western end of state only rain-and lots of it forcast.
Maybe I should arrive with my sled!

Our front door is mostly for decoration as it is easier to go through the garage to enter the house. Come winter we don't even bother to shovel the steps. So, today, when we had to use the front door to bring in large items for the deck, imagine my surprise to find a UPS parcel sitting in front of the door. The contents were OK considering it sat for two weeks under a foot of snow.

That's one consolation of being a retired mason: we habitually follow the weather forecast as it determines whether we can work or not.  The other is the "retired" part: I went for a 75 mile ride yesterday to I wouldn't be in full blown B______T! mode tomorrow.  I just hope the road crews have run out of salt.......

Oooh man  :shocked:, we got lucky with only 3". Still very wintery with no less salt and sand on the roads, but not enough to bother with the snowblower. It's GOT to be close to the end...
