Oh MAN THAT's cool! Perfect timing.

You know, I just really love the way snow smells?  Well, the air when it snows actually.
Nuthin' like it.

Splitty where do you live? I'm so far out in nowhere that the air is always pretty sweet.....

I live in Salem oregon, the valley, so we only get a couple of inches a year if we're lucky. 
As a kid I used to live up in the mountains (around Detroit), so we got lots of sweet snow then!
I fondly remember it used to be waist high....until I remember I was in grade school so waist high was not really so high....

While Detroit can get a lot of snow due to the lake effect, there are no tall hills let alone mountains within a couple hundred mile radius of Detroit.

Wow! Are there even any neighbours in the vicinity you can slaughter if and when you're overcome with cabin fever?

The ICE Christmas is here .. won't even attempt to walk to the corner.  We normally use less than one bag of salt a year and this year we started with a third of a bag of salt and I just finished off the new one (that I expected to last at least until March 2014) today.
