Southern MA. Southern being a distinction for this predicted storm!

Southern being a highly relative term in this instance! We're in the Connecticut "snow belt"(Lower Berkshires)...seems like we always get hit the hardest here. They're saying 3-6 for tomorrow and I know which end we'll get.

Makes me wanna sing Jingle Bells in a bad way! I kinda miss snow....
Jamz was so distracted on the usual sunday phone call yesterday that I finally asked what was going on and he said they were having a snow ball fight and he just laughed and laughed at them. I said, go join in! I got, nah, I'll just stay here and talk to you. Three more minutes into the conversation & he said, "Maybe I will go get into some of that". Made me very happy that he was gonna go get pelted. I told him that atleast this time, he has REAL gloves. The last time it snowed down here, he had to wear socks on his hands because we didn't own gloves! Post more photos guys!!!

My post should say, Of course, that it brings *CGA* up to 62 posts. I'm really struggling with this new keyboard... It's too cold here to enjoy the snow much---it was 20 below last night...

Today's "storm" was a bust...younger kids were disappointed they didn't get day off from school...parents overjoyed.

Unreal. I can't even begin to imagine what its like to be that cold! Sorry guys! Bundle up and will pray that your car doors don't freeze! Hey! Wasn't that Elvis in the photo? Who knew he was at the CGA all this time!!
Guess what! I received the proofs for Jamz' class photo in the mail today. What a cool surprise because he never mentioned having photos taken. AND HE HAS A SPRINKLING OF HAIR!!  | |
