And I hear ya on those Florida pool days...but I recently rediscovered my liking of the cold winter nights and crisp autumn skies. I'm quite sure I'm going to adore spring when it arrives!

Even the senior members of the Smith clan (me and Mom) shared in that slippery slope; the nights I would pull you by sled over to PK's house, the snowball fights, the snowmen at Linganore, the help I got decorating the house with bright lights from Leslie!! Yeah. Kinda miss that, but then I shrug my shoulders and go out and take a swim in my backyard. I figure you all can visit here and share the good times like: Getting thrown in the pool (naturally with pricy clothes and carrying an expensive camera), testing out my boat in the swimming pool, drinking so much beer the garbage man complains about the wear and tear on his axels, and laughing till tears run down our cheeks. Hey, do we have fun?? You older kids - Remember the big hill in the back of Fairview Ave?

Can you believe the last time it snowed at my house I was a 12 YO 6th grader, & I'm in my 60s now? Of course, I've driven to the snow a few times, but, in L.A., snow just doesn't happen (unless you live on the very outskirts). Somehow, I couldn't access the video, but, seeing the pix & reading your recitation of the day with your family was great! Patricia A. Leslie, It was so much fun reading about your snow day.

We never get winter like that in North Texas (DFW area), but we had a couple that were real winners in the Panhandle. Glad you had what looks like a GREAT time. Looks like you had a blast.

I swear, before I moved away, this area would get several big snowstorms a year. This year there have been two piddly ones, and it was in the 50's thru January! Now Kelly's not getting it in Massachusetts, Stephanie's not getting it in North Carolina...:wtf: Guess it must be that global warming thing, huh? (PS: For you dirty-minded Plotmonkeyers, "Getting IT" = Getting Snow! :happy2: Have any of you noticed how many of us talked about how much it *used* to snow wherever we were?
