A shameful attitude for a monster lover!

Glad you guys and ghouls like the pics! Mark, you are welcome to come haunt the woods here anytime-maybe even find some long lost Adirondack Sasquatch cousins!

 I'm with Scatter, I'd like to experience a really good snowfall soon.  The mountains to the east and west of here get snow, but blocks off any for the valley.  STUPID VALLEY.

Between last year and so far this year, we haven't had much snow at all here. It's odd.

So the Adirondacks in winter are like Spokanistan - - except more scenic.

We've had a pretty lousy winter here.  Maybe 10 inches total snowfall In November and December--and most of it melted off within a week. 

Currently I have two inches of snow in my yard--and that had been there for about two weeks.  And the temp range is 15-25 through the day, so the snow ain't going anywhere.
Just gloom, fog, overcast skies and frost.

Three years ago we had 78 inches--Now that was a winter.

We are supposed to be getting a snowstorm this Friday afternoon. 6- 10 inches. This morning was cold- the coldest it's been here since January of 2010. At 3:00 am it was 4 F when I looked at the thermometer.

Temps are currently in the single digits here on eastern Long Island...have a nice fire going in the wood burning stove, keeping the house comfortably warm. Once in a while i bundle up and go outside. There's something very cleansing about standing out in the cold night air, looking up at  a moonlit, starry sky that just seems to go on forever.

I adore snow-in pictures.  In real life, I don't want to be anywhere near the stuff.

Agreed! I am not a fan of winter at all.

There's nothing quite like being snowed in a cabin in the woods.
