Snow

This picture was not taken today. Definitely not. But I was working with one of my very conservative friends (Fox News in the background like the nuisance phantom) and learned a wealth of information on his side of things. Stimulating conversation is invigorating as well as gaining insight into such potentially touchy things as our inept president (and the ability to make that statement on a public web log), oil, Iraq, development, wildlife, fishing, the economy, etc., many of which we share similar views.

Then to the coffee shop, and home on the slick winter ice with snow on top. I envision this will be a pretty bad storm and shut Bellingham down for a few days. Three inches or so cripples this city. And we have no snow plows - we sold them to Seattle. No kidding. Oh well, Bellingham still has a very small town feel and it will be no problem to work inside for a few days, or walk into town. Or just cancel appointments. But tomorrow the temp is predicted at forty or so (four or so Celsius).

Busy as crap, but having a high time.

"Nothing's for certain
It could always go wrong
Come in when it's raining
Go on out when it's gone
We could have us a high time
Living the good life
Well I know
."

But snow is nothing to us folks who work out at Ferndale~ where men are men and snowploughs do not exist.
5" of snow out at Ferndale make for one very unhappy Volkswagen...and driver!
