O.T. I has snow!

by **artist4perry** » Sun Mar 01, 2009 11:58 am

O.K. So we never get snow like this but every 4 or 5 years. So far about 7 inches in my front yard. I will take pictures in the morning before it melts! I know, you northerners are sick to death of it. We are thrilled, we were not expecting more than one inch of accumulation.

It was around 80, here in L.A. I thought you lived in the south, isn't spring right around the corner?

Do you actually enjoy driving in it? :shock:

I got nothing against snow and loved it as a kid growing up outside Philly, but I'm not missing it. Thanks for the pics though. Repost them on Christmas Eve.

Didn't you have a bad ice storm, too? Do you guys have trouble driving in snow?

Only reason I shared them was because it is so rare here. No I don't enjoy driving in it, we came back from Jonesboro and three cars were in the ditch. But once we were home it was a lovely sight to see. Kind of late in the year, and we were not expecting it at all. Nice treat!

On another topic: I was in Jonesboro at a coffee place, I was drawing and relaxing when some little girl came over and started watching me draw. So politely I asked her if she liked art. She said yes, and continued to watch me quietly.

Now I am never bothered by people watching me, but then she brought over her mom. Her mom mind you looks like an anorexic Sandy Duncan. She said oh how nice! Honey you can sit right at her table and watch her draw and talk to her! Then mom took off before I could say anything!

Next thing I know the little girl brings over little sister, and I have two watching me. Both children have brought over their drinks and neither drink has a lid. So they start arguing and bumping the table I am trying to draw on, and asking me if I like Yugeo, and about 50 other questions.

The table is being jostled around, and I can forsee one of their drinks might spill on my artwork, so I start to pack up. Then they wanted their older teanage brother to see..........Oh joy.......

I spied Dan and asked him if he wanted to go get something to eat, he said sure. So I packed up my stuff, bid the girls goodbye and hastily left the table.

Their brother started to follow me a part of the way to where Dan was standing. His friend joined him and he said "Dude, that lady is the bomb!"

That made my day! :lol:

Thank goodness for the little girls, if we had not left then, the roads would have been much worse. :wink:

Yes, we had a serious ice storm. Our city was declaired a national disaster area.

Both ice and snow storms are rare, in Northeast Arkansas.

Snow at least you can drive in it for a while. We don't have the equipment to keep the roads clear here. And yes, the rednecks make driving nuts. I know how to drive in it. It is the duffus award winners on the road that you have to beware of. :evil:

Woke up this morning to the sound of snow being shoveled in my neighborhood. I don't think the temp. ever rose above the 20's all day, and for tonight, a balmy -9 degrees. Enjoy your 80+ degree weather #@%&% (I hope California breaks off and falls into the ocean). :twisted:

The snow is already starting to melt.

Well it was beautiful as it fell yesterday. Sorry for gushing over the snow. I seldom get to see this much.

Wow that's beautiful Ginger. About every 3 years we get enough snow to build a 1' tall snowdwarf.

by **tammy** » Mon Mar 02, 2009 3:57 am

Thanks, Ginger for sharing the snow...your house looks so pretty, esp. with the blue sky. I love snow, but haven't lived in it for over 25 yrs. so I'd probably be crabbing about shoveling or driving in it now.
