    He's meeting his ship. I think the snow thing is a conspiracy though . . . It last snowed here in November, two days after he left for six weeks. And now, it snows again three days after he leaves :? :think: :problem: :thumbdown: The snow is beautiful though and it will be gone in a few days, so it's all good :D

    I come back to South Florida and everything is green again after a month away but still we have fire watch in our community. I've learned my lesson about fires. :(:o

    great pictures - love your dog, he/she doesn't look amused :lol:

    i love waking up to a huge blanket of snow
    but i also sympathise with you
    it can be a pain in the ass


    soon it'll be gone though, so it's best to appreciate it while you can :)

    My yard has looked like today's pictures since November. Despite several Alberta chinooks we are still looking at piles of snow, and since it is -30 right now I do not see it melting anytime soon. We won't see a crocus until May! Its funny, yesterday I was house hunting (dreaming really) online and looking at places in Victoria. Today it looks to much like the place I want to leave! ;)

    Keep dreaming my friend, it's a good one :D I do that picturing the place that we'll be buying up Island.

    The only thing that really sucks about snow here is that we don't really have the infrastructure to deal with its removal, so unless the sun decides to come out and melt it all, getting around the next couple of days will be interesting to say the least ;) especially with the stupid Sunday drivers who want to experience winter driving but are afraid to drive faster than 10 km/h :x

    While Vancouver's great and all, I don't actually live there.

    You're right. I am enjoying it :D And no, Nikita was not amused although I think it had more to do with me taking her picture rather than the snow (she is part husky after-all ;) ) :D

    Well the weather is particularly odd today, warm and sunny.

    My son went out wearing shorts and a T-shirt :?
