I rembember visting Tulsa(have you been there? does the water always
smell like gas?) as a teenager-you know, back when the dinos still
roamed the earth. It was FLAT. I can well believe you have Chicago
(where I lived as a baby and only remember big snow banks and a
nightmare about the furnace chasing me down the street) beat on the
wind thing.
I love snow, myself. However, last winter when it snowed over 18
inches in 36 hours it did strain that love. I think we average like 70
or 80 inches, or maybe it is 60 to 70. We haven't had a normal year in
awhile. Last year we had snow piles from plowing-neighbor came over
with his tractor and bucket- over 15 feet high. We also had record
flooding come spring. The most I can remember at one time was the
Halloween blizzard about 10 yrs ago. The Twin cities got 39 inches in
about 24hrs.

I don't think you are a whimp, I just know I'm crazy-must be something
in the water up here ;)

Try to keep warm and hope the henna still gets dark for you!

: Hi there. OK OK You definately have us beat!!! We do reach 0 and
: below, but I don't think it has ever happened for a week. Our big
: deal here is the wind. Chicago has nothing on us there. Our winter
: temps range right around freezing. I know it is nothing compared to
: what you guys have. I love the snow. Are you laughing, saying yeah
: right? I do though. We do get snow but not for very long periods
of
: time. Like two to three weeks at any one time. It melts and then
: comes back again. I will actually travel to Colorado just to play
: and ski in it. How much snow do you guys get?

: I don't have a heated waterbed, but I love my electric blanket. I

: Peace be with you,
