We had snow falling in Dutch Springs on Sunday when I surfaced from my dive. Shame I didn't have a camera with me.

An hour late? They not know how to take care of the roads up there?

Wow... I'm not sure what surprises me more.... the snow on the ground/trees, or that fact that people in Canada really DO have houses/housing-divisions (versus Igloos).

Oh... and is that a Roger's Sat Dish, or a blackmarket DirectTV dish?

:outahere:

The roads weren't that bad actually... It was the drivers.::p:

Surprising! Don't all of you Canadians take snowmobiles to work if there is ANY snow on the ground? :D

Actually... I"m glad I still do allot of work in NW Ohio. Cincy hardly makes it worthwhile to own a 4WD anymore. I had allot of fun in Toledo last year during the intense blizzard they got!!! :woohoo:

Come to da'burgh. With all of the hills, the 4WD still comes in handy getting up the hills. It won't help stopping on the way down though.

Ok.. so I went outside to play at lunch...

Thanks Bob!

yeah.. I was trying to convince myself that they were laughing "with" me...

:sure:

Daryl... did it have something to do with writing your name? :D

No, if it was writing my name, they would have been joining me.....

...this was more along the lines of what happens when that particular sorority sister decides to get drunk and do something crazy.

I am still waiting for my first (usually only) snow of the season.
I did scrap ice this morning. Not the same as snow.

Thanks for sharing yours. I would have gone out and made snow angels with you.
Frosty looks like he was fun to make.

Can't wait to make some snowmen this year. My daughter is also old enough to now take out and introduce her to pumeling her brother with snow balls.

Thank You for sharing the pics. Here in Texas, we don't get to see snow very often.

I can predict confidently that we will have no snow here that lasts longer than a day. And that is fine with me.!!!!!:D

Cincy has plenty of good sized hills It's Indy that is flat as a pancake.

Apparently Bob wasn't living in Cincy a few years back when that huge storm that dumped 3 feet in southern Indiana in one day and hit Cincy pretty good as well if I remember correctly. We spent a good 7 hours on the I-65 between Columbus and Louisville. That really sucked.

But in keeping with the theme of the thread. I got up this morning and there was a teeny tiny itsy bitsy little bit of snow stuck to a very very few things that don't hold any heat. :)

Ok.. so all of that snow is trying to melt a bit now... I thought spring was finally here, but today we got some more freezing rain/snow/rain/gobbledygook...

Here's the parking lot at my work...

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b296/Gitterdun7/Ottawa/ParkingLot1.jpg

But.. on the way to the barn last night, I managed to get a couple of pics of a couple of farmer's fields, that are flooding.

Excuse the picture quality.. I was watching the road...Lol...

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b296/Gitterdun7/Ottawa/DSCI0003-3.jpg

Yes... this is a field.... with current...

This morning, when I pulled in to work, there was a gorgeous male mallard duck playing in the pond. When I got out of my car to take a picture of him, another car came, made a big splash, and he was gone.. pft....
