Yeah, for Christmas last year I got:

A small shovel for the trunk of my car
A tire gauge
3 quarts of oil for my car
Windshield cleaner
Two ice-scrapers

All cause of the snowy winters up here ::sigh::

It's snowed up here a few times, but nothing's stayed on the ground just yet. Supposedly, we're getting a foot tonight ... if so, no school tomorrow!!

I lived in Ohio for 8 years. Yes, I'm very familiar with the minutae of a snowy climate.
However, I like cold weather better than 100+ degree temperatures 10 months out of the year.

*stares longingly outside of window*

*waits for it to snow*

*waits patiently*

*waits some more*

*sighs* guess i'm going to school tomorrow...

*remembers the day that it "snowed" and laughs* i still say that it was slush. i believe it was raining earlier that day and suddenly large clumps of slushy frozen stuff started falling from the sky. my whole class assembled outside so that they could catch these "snowflakes." i swear it was slush. it melted as soon as it hit the ground. silly california girls for thinking that it was snow *snickers*

though, i've never seen snow. sad, no? what's sadder is that i live 2 hours away from just about any ski resort.

Let's clarify....California has *snow* (and lots of it!); we just dont have any snow days . California is the place to live if you want to be in control of your life. You can plan a trip to the mountains any time you want snow, but you never have to worry about it disrupting your plans. You can leave your car parked outdoors and never have to worry about the weather messing it up. You dont' have to wait for snow plows. You dont have to let your car defrost in the morning. But any time you feel like you want any of that, you drive a couple hours and boom, you found snow.

Yo guys are lucky that you get snow. I live in Arizona. And even though it's a high elevation, our first snow is generally in April and even then it doesn't stick.

Ohh what I do for a white Christmas!

You could always come to UTC regional we are almost sure to have snow especially since we have had so much already.

That might be a good idea, but, alas, I cannot. Dang darn it! haha.
