Saturn, But not That Saturn

As the clock runs out on winter we finally get a decent snowfall.  The first since right after Christmas.  Saturn, as The Weather Channel would say, dumped a robust 4 1/2 inches of snow, cancelled school, knocked out power for several hours, and provided fun for all.  Maybe next winter we can get blasted with a major snowstorm.  We can only hope.  The good thing about the power outage is we got to practice playing in the dark.  This will prepare us well for rolling blackouts once the economy collapses and Obama shuts down all the coal fired power plants.  Or maybe it was a power furlough due to the sequester.

Really???

This is the superior intellect of your vice president folks!  If this is the best our country has to offer we may just be in trouble. 

Happy New Year 2013

Snow on the ground, a handsome beauty proudly displaying his coolness in the yard, and a new year.  Snowing as we speak, hopefully this is just the beginning of a lot of snow around here this winter.  Running total so far just over 6 inches for the season.  We're looking at you Old Man Winter to come through and be a little more generous this year. 

Well Played Louisville...

You may have won this round by a measly 3 points, 80 -77, but remember, this is the only way you will get your name on a championship t-shirt.  GO BIG BLUE!!!

What's Your Name Sweetheart?

Just noticed that the Weather Channel is naming winter storms.  This is just ridiculous.  Next they will be naming thunderstorms and foggy mornings.  Can't wait to tell the grand kids about the time Winter Storm Euclid grazed to the north!

Old Man Winter Punched Us in the Gut!

We have already bested last years snow total of a dusting by cashing in on a solid 2 1/2 inches of the good stuff.  However, hopes were high for so much more.  Now we must deal with the reality of another snowy bust in the Near Miss Wing of the Winter Hall of Fame.  Surely, one of these days, we can return to the glory days of 2010 - 2011 when snow covered the landscape through December and January in what was a glorious time for snow lovers of all ages.  Until then we simply hope and wish, fingers and toes crossed.
