Crazy winter
It's been a really crazy winter here this year. we've had NO snow at all and we're now going into our second week of January. Not that i'm complaining because i hate snow but wow! i see buds on the trees!! it's warm, it feels like spring. i'm Lovin' it!
the only thing i missed was no snowfall on x-mas day. because of that, it didn't feel like it was x-mas. if i had the choice, i'd have snow on that day only and the rest would be summer.

Where do you live?
Here in NW Wisconsin we're starting to have grass grow.

Re:
We've had a couple of snow falls already (one time the snow lasted for almost a week) which is really strange considering I live in a rain forest at sea level.

If it's gonna be this cold (below 20F/-6C), I'd rather just have snow.

Re:

I would like to have snow for a day once in a while. Not much of a chance where I live but I keep hoping. It does get in the teens sometimes however.

Yes, the only bad thing about these good times, is that they may distract Weiser from his ultimate goal.
But I am confident he will make the best out of this job.
