Washington is experiencing the most snowfall in the PNW that they've had for quite some time. The snowball my son has designed is HUGE!!!! It's almost as big as he is!

No snow in L.A. And my freezer is waiting for the repairman. [Cry] So all my snowfights will be virtual.

*sneaks around the corner of Shan's fort, and lobs a large, wet snowball at her*

*lobs snowballs at Shan*

It looks like a Christmas card outside. I don't think we're going to get as much as we did 7 years ago, though. That was outrageous. [Smile]

*Squeals and ducks incoming lobbed missiles while simultaneously throwing half-a-dozen carefully crafted snowbombs!*

I don't know, jeni - we have a good six inches already here in Oly . . .

Pretty!

It is pretty! And I get to wear my snow booties and gloves and thermal underwear! I haven't broken out the snow pants yet because it's not that much snow....

*falls down and makes a snow angel*

It's too cold for snowballs up here! The snow we have (Ottawa) is fluffy, flakey and powdery and doesn't stick together at all!

However, I can make snow angels!

*Covers scottneb in slug slime and rolls him in the rock salt. "Take that!"* [Razz]

Smiles benignly at JNSB - "Continue snow angeling, if you please."

*Retreats to fort and begins molding numerous missiles in preparation for the battle.*

Shan, it won't touch the snow storms 7 years ago. Then, we got 3-5 feet in a week and a half. We won't get more than a foot here this time, and it's already getting warmer. Tomorrow's going to be a mess...they're saying freezing rain.

I'd say it was an advantage to work from home, but with the kids both home, it's not like I'll get much work done. [Smile]

*explains to Teshi that if it's virtual, you can pretend* [Razz]

We don't have any snow... we had three inches, but they went away. [Frown] Oh well, hopefully we'll get more, it's getting c-c-o-l-l-d-d-d-e-r-r!!! Aaaaaaah!!! It was 6 degrees yesterday morning, and I froze to death!

*throws virtual snowball at rivka*

Nothing more than flurries out here so far. Of course, considering that a couple days ago we were experiencing temperatures more appropriate to mid-spring, I'm content.

*Ducks behind fort to review scottneb's paperwork. Signs on the dotted line. Shakes hands. Wipes snow from latest successful snow missile and dives over the top of the fort to tackle Bernard . . . "Gotcha"! So much for that trebuchet . . . ha ha ha!*

*Stands and stares in dismay as the snow stops falling and the rain begins.* [Frown]

*Quickly molds a last few precious snowballs and prepares for the last ditch effort.*
