Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

You really need to be carful around there. Somebody, or something, turned them to stone. Didn't see any snake-headed people did you?

As for the claustrophobic situations, I don't have them. I crawled through "worm tubes" (tunnels) in caves where I had to use my feet to move forward because you couldn't use your arms.

Be safe and carful...
Didn't do the wormhole crawling, but did travel in some pretty confined spaces. But that as in another life when I was young and strong and fearless (and a bit stupid).

That picture brings back memories of when I was a kid living in Pennsylvania. (had to spell it out just to see if I still knew how). ANd shortly after that fluffy white stuff came gray crap that coated ever moving thing on the roads the exact same color... Can't say I miss it...but nice to see...before the gray color change!

If it's gonna' be cold: I'd like snow with it. Snow can be fun to play in - snowmobiling, skiing, etc. But TN doesn't have the stuff to deal with it since we only get a small amount each year. So, the city kinda' shuts down.

But the dog is LOVIN' it!!

I just checked: Hell, Michigan is 7º, and we're 9º. So, technically it's not coldern' Hell out there. But, it does feel like it.

Well my best guess is about 6-8 inches. It's real pretty. This is the most I've seen since living here the last 15 years.
Definitely the most in a while. We've been down here about 25 years, and i can remember some decent snows. But don't remember volume.

I like snow … I like playing in it … I like the cold of central PA. I don’t like not feeling well with a fresh coating of snow on the ground.
