    Shoveling? Isn't that what homeowner's association fees are all about? I always enjoy watching as the snow is removed from my drive and sidewalks.

    I'd just love to see a 'real' snowfall this winter (as long as it does not come whilst I am driving to Scotland for the Ferintosh Burns weekends next month!).

    We had a 3" fall which lasted a couple of hours one day last January - the first snow here for several years - but all we're having so far this winter are heavy frosts.

    Still snowing here.. I think we are going to get the full 50cm they forcasted. I live in a basement apartment and can only see out of the top half of my bedroom window. Sadly the dogs love it outside and I have to be on the other end of the leash!!

    Silly Mod, how are you to notice the warming effects when you're sitting in a room with the furnace cranked to 90?
