i just had to post that i love your little subtitle, fromtexas... "vrai's trunk monkey"! whenever i see that i chuckle!!! i love the trunk monkeys!!!

coming from maine i have to sit back and have a laugh about all these HEAVY snow alerts. 3-6 or 5-10 inches is not heavy snow. don't get me wrong - i'm excited for the white stuff... i just think it's funny that tomorrow ALLLLL the reporters will be on street corners in the district with their rulers in the snow. funny stuff.

We do tend to freak out don't we. I'm hoping for enought to take off and have some fun with the kids.

I thought we were still getting 3-5 inches. Didn't the cancellation just mean we weren't getting over 5?

The "heavy snow" warning is cancelled. The "winter storm" warning is still in affect.
