We (in south-central Ontario) have already had one storm, and no sooner did
the snow from that melt away do we get more. As of right now, it has been
snowing for a day and a half, with no sign of letting up. We have so far
accumulated several centimeters of snow on the ground. It is sooooooooo
pretty. I wish I had a digital camera so I could show you. ;-)

You lucky *******. I still have to drive three hours to get to decent
snow. It is all foggy and clammy here now. Good for the orchids,
though. I can't believe how they are growing now that I have finally
figured out my vandas can and will take water every two days quite
happily. That is almost a doubling of the watering frequency.

On the brighter side, the long term weather prognosticaters here claim it
will be a mild one.

I think this is along the lines of a fortune teller saying you will
meet some tall, dark bombshell. Basic fiscal fact of life. The bringer
of bad news seldom, if ever, get paid.
