Re: Totally random thoughts and comments

The snow we had recently was enough for me. Snow on Christmas day (a couple of inches), Thunder snow. 8 inches of snow, snow in the walmart parking lot in piles for almost three weeks. This is the sunny south. We haven't had weather like this for years. All I have to say is to stay safe and don't send it down here to us. I am not sure that I have ever seen a snow plow and shoveling the 8 inches of snow off our walkway was enough for me. My snow jones is gone. I have pictures of the grandkids sledding. Soon we'll get back to normal with tornadoes and then 110 degree heat.
