This is probably nothing big deal to most out there, but when it snows in Salem, Oregon… it is news-worthy. I work up this morning to about 6 inches of the white stuff on the ground. At first, when I looked out my back window, I thought maybe I had left the light on, but on second glance, I figured out that there was a heck of a lot of snow out there. Needless to say I am pretty excited. I still had to go to work though because I have responsibilities to take care of, but that was part of the excitement because I got to drive my new 4WD for the first time in something that was 4-wheel-worthy. I must say it handled quite well; I passed many struggling 2WD vehicles. Anyway…. Just thought I would share my excitement with all of you….. now, back to our regularly scheduled programming……
A Random Act of Blogging
A Blog about nothing really!
Random observation:
On my way to work, I saw three (3) in-a-bad-way vehicles. The first, an SUV, was on its side. The second, an SUV, was stuck in someone’s yard. The third, a minivan, was stuck off commercial.
My car, a 1992 Nissan Sentra, front-wheel drive, was just dandy. I love driving in the snow. Woo hoo!!
Speaking of limericks…
Yep. A limerick about mad cow AND snow. Do it, Javaman, do it!!
Ok… how the heck do you get snow in Salem and up here in Washington we get nothing… I swear the weather hates Seattle.
I know isn’t it crazy… we never get snow. I just looked at weather.com and we are expected to get more over the next week or so.
Watching the news today we are suppose to get 3-5 inches today
Good luck with that… we are in for more tonight as well.
Where I live, in Manitoba, Canada, we can give an outright guarantee of a White Christmas.
Bing wouldn’t need to “dream” of such events if he ever wandered to where I live.
You are very fortunate to have no snow. When I lived in Central Florida (speaking of contrasts), there was no snow either.
I can’t say that in Manitoba!
