I don't know what's going on with the weather patterns the last few years. On Vancouver Island, we get at best a dusting of snow. Last year and this, we've received somewhat more than a dusting. Personally I don't even own a pair of boots. Penny Loafers (just jokin) and snow just don't go well together. Oh well, should be gone in a couple of days..

Cheers

I recieved that large package you sent. However all that was in it was a little water in one corner. Guess the snow must have escaped. Do not know how that could have happened, we who are natives out here do not know much about snow, it was outlawed it several years ago.

Least ways the water wasn't yellow...........

This thread just goes to show RetouchPro is indeed a place where the world converges to study and enjoy the same creative passions.

Some have snow. Some have warm weather. Here in Arkansas, we have had the whole gambut in the last month. Two days ago tornado season began early. Not 20 miles from where I live a tornado took out good sections of several farms and all of the creeks flooded killing several people who were stranded.

Despite the jokes about weather being a "safe" topic of conversation and numerous jokes about people who talk about the weather, that it is fascinating to learn about where we all live and the world around us.

Have fun all. I'm off the the grocery store to stock up before the next storm.

I agree Janet, nicely put.

Remember the other day when I was complaining about how cold it was here? In case you don't remember, it was -50* with the windchill and had been for days.

Well, I woke up this morning at 3 a.m. and had a look outside and it was pouring rain - that's right RAIN!

What the ........

Must be because all the snowbirds hopped on planes on the weekend and headed south - it always happens. When the ones who can afford it decide they've had enough and escape to warmer climes, it warms up here LOL

Take care, Margaret

I hope that doesn't mean we've got -50 coming.

Ed, If I were you, I'd stock up just in case you need to hunker down by the fire for a few days.

By the way, I picked up John Grisham's latest book yesterday at Costco and I'm having a hard time tearing myself away from it to get a bit of work done here.

Take care, Margaret
