Right now, the Cape Fear region who was hosting us for the games is totally iced over. Couldn't we just skate to the game??
We got dumped on here at the house. So far, there's 3 1/2 to 4 inches on the ground in our neck of the woods. Tobacco Road is shut down, either from the snow itself or all the dumbasses who can't drive in it. It would be entertaining to watch if the stakes weren't so high. I have no problem with idiots eliminating themselves from the gene pool - in fact I highly encourage the practice - but when innocent others are affected, well, that's just not right.
The Gnu Herd stepped outside to enjoy the new fallen snow this morning, then ran back inside when The Missus announced the advent of hot cocoa. Ahh, nothing is finer than sipping hot cocoa next to a roaring fire, with a blanket of snow just outside the window.
Here's some pictures from a snowed-in Tobacco Road. Enjoy!
Snowfall on the homestead...
...and on the trees. This tree, by the way is a Thuja Occidentalis. I just like saying that. Makes me feel... smart.
Whoops. This isn't in my neighborhood! I'll bet a lot of my neighbors wish this was the view right now, though. This is from our trip to the Sunshine State for my Graduation back in December.
I just realized I never posted an update from our trip. Suffice it to say, a good time was had by all. Guess I'd better go dig up some more photos for a belated update...

Don't remind me about snow. It's supposed to be some sort of megablizzard here this weekend (if you believe the news and their love of causing panic) and it's all anyone is talking about.
