Don't know about the rest of the world outside of Anchor Point, but it is snowing here! It did not show up on the Doppler Radar, therefore all this white stuff is not snow. Don't know where it came from, but it did dump on us. I plowed this morning, had about seven inches on the ground. Before I finished plowing, it started to snow again and has been snowing since. We are now snow bound and I doubt that I will be able to find my plow truck, should have tied a string to it!
In the event that you were planning on attending the 1st Annual Snow Games at the Hole In The Wall Recreational Area, this weekend. Please make alternative plans, all games have been cancelled due to snow and the potential for avalanches. All of you know that my professional deck and sidewalk snow remover is a fanatic when it comes to removing snow. She did a great job this morning, however, the picture below was taken about fifteen minutes ago, the hump you see in the snow is the hot tub on our deck - don't know where the deck went since it is 24 inches inches lower than the edge of the hot tub. As I sit here, I wonder how the HITW Fire Pit Gazebo is fairing and if I will ever be able to break a road into the area again this winter.
As a side bar, this evening I was watching the Republican Presidential candidate debate in South Carolina. A debate was going on as to the "surge" in Iraq and how slowly the democratic form of government was taking hold in that country. The question was posed by a very far left liberal hoping to spark a little controversy with the Republicans. Senator McCain probably gave the best answer that I have ever heard pertaining to this subject, as quoted by him; "Democracy in Iraq is going to take time, there are no Thomas Jefferson's in Iraq, Saddam Hussein killed all of them."
