    Highs in the 20's next week! I wish there were a home Seahawks game next weekend (even though we suck). :p

    Not last year. By this time I had already been on the mountain a few times. However, a lot of years recently have been pretty poor...

    So far it's only snowed at night. I want a good daytime storm that I can watch.

    I love winter with a caveat. I'm not sure I'd like months of below freezing weather and snow and ice. I'd definitely like it more than the summer months though, but I truly enjoy fairly moderate extremes. If it could be between 20 and 70 year round I'd be happy and that's pretty much what we've got here. :) As long as it isn't too hot though I'm happy! :D

    the only time i like winter is during the last few minutes in bed in the morning before youhave to get up. you are really warm, as well as your bed. everywhere else in the room is cold but there, and its the most comfortable part of the house.
    they call them fingers, but i never see them fing. oh, there they go
  • Let's see freezing rain falling now. It will turn into snow in the early AM. Um this is our 3rd storm in less then a week. Could be a foot of snow on the ground by 2morrow nite. I don't really like winter right now.

    haha...yea.

    when we lived in WA it was nothing like the winters we have hear in OH. not to say they don't get the same type of weather once in awhile...i do remember Bellingham making it on CNN for their record snowfall...just after we moved back home.

    anyway, i love the winter also. just don't like the rain we have right now


    Esther's here and she's sick?

    hi Esther, now we are all going to be sick, thanks
  • UPDATE:

    Huge flakes falling outside. Oh I can't wait to wake up to this. ;)

    It would be nice if you didn't have to go anywhere. ;) Otherwise, not so much. :)
