(cheerier and cheerier) I guess if the glass is half full..... But I agree with tsuwm, if only it would stay white. Maybe high in the mountains???Here in the city it is already chunked up into large piles of white, by the plows, taking whatever they put down first like sand and other gravelly thingies. Next it will be blackish and brownish, and will sit for days on end, 'even unto the next generation' (of snow fall). There are piles of it now that will be here until April. Oh ye of the lands where it falls beautifully and watch it melt only to have it fall again: rejoice, ye, that ye live not in the Missouri basin. ----please, draw me a sheep---- Copy Link to Clipboard Share Post on Facebook Share Post on Twitter Re: Groundhogs day olly #182666 02/16/09 07:52 PM Joined: Mar 2000 Posts: 6,511 lower upstate New York AnnaStrophic Carpal Tunnel AnnaStrophic Carpal Tunnel Joined: Mar 2000 Posts: 6,511 lower upstate New York I find it very interesting that P Phil would be in the news in New Zealand!
