Well after a very mild winter, we didn't have any snow on the ground at all, and then we got hit with two winter storms this week. Monday was the worst, with driving conditions that were almost impossible, and a total accumulation of 9 to 12 inches of snow. Then we got hit again yesterday, with another 4 to 6 inches of more new snow. And they say this snow is going to stick around for a while.
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeekkkk!!!!!!

I live in MN too, I know what you're talking about!

After a winter of harldly ANY snow, here we get hit with 2 big snow storms in a week! Finally when I'm ready for spring, here comes the snow - but when I wanted the snow, it was no where in site!

Oh well, thats what we get for living in MN - I'm used to the extremely crazy weather!

We still have snow on the ground. I had to shovel the porch this morning AND scrape my car and let it warm up. How depressing.

Just send it my way. I'm closer! I absolutely love this snow, although I wouldn't mind it being nicer. It is 40 outside right now, though. The snow makes good snowballs & that makes it fun to play fetch with one of the dogs!

I agree with you about it being depressing. Winter lasts waaaaaay too long.
