    I didn't really get any snow this year :( - there was a really cold spell that hit us in December - but no snow :(

    And no I don't believe it's global warming - just nature passing me by this year!

    Hi Jon - I tried that, and lost my ruler!

    Here's what took out our power for a day or so. This was taken while the snowstorm was still in progress - index.php?option=com_community&view=photos&task=showimage&tmpl=component&imgid=2132&maxW=744&maxH=446

    Here's the limb that took out my workshop gate, actually the size of a small tree...

    Ah, "Greatest Snow on Earth" is how we sell our ski industry here in Utah. By the way, I love your photo's of the snow in your yard. Our normal winter is just over 120 inches but alas this year has seen a lot of our snow go to Central and Southern Utah. I was at a local resort last night and there was just over five feet of snow. I am missing the powder that we normally have, but then, we just got 22 inches last night so perhaps today will be better...... Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.......

    I've stopped counting the inches, at least for the present ;) - Here in Maryland, we've got around 5 feet of the white stuff on the ground since last Friday... :eek:

    5 feet in Maryland, hmmmmmmm. In Maine, where I used to live, they'd call that a "dusting". :D

    Hmmm... Think the key to this is in the use of the 'former' term... "...where I used to live..". LOL!
