[COLORADO] Snow?

We insist on photographic evidence.

I'm stuck at work (not literally). Because I can leave when I want, and I know my truck will make it. I'm just a sadist when it comes to driving in the snow and watching these idiots squirm.

Anyway, I'll snap some pictures when I get home. I should have brought my camera with me so you all could share in the misery I will be enjoying.

I left yesterday afternoon to see my daughter in Salina, Kansas. We were going to leave today and I thought "Self it'd be best to leave eaarly." Made it under cloudy skies a nice easy trip. You all have it melted before I have to come back.

Took me over 3 hours to get home. I really wish I had taken the camera with me. The drive down Arapahoe road was a nightmare. I got a break when I found a liquor store that was open. The effects of my purchase are the reason I don't have any pictures right now. I will be working from home tomorrow if I can drag myself out of bed.

Man, it was pretty bad out!I had to shovel 3 times yesterday for a total of 5 hours.The 1st time I shoveled, I waited a little bit to long, and I paid for it!A lot of snow!!What stunk about it, was (a.)No dad to help me lol.And (b.) I could only take one scoop of snow, and I'd have to walk over to the snow pile to dump it.Then return back to the same spot, and take another scoop of snow, doing this several times just to clear one little spot.Sheesshh!

Where as previous snow storms, I would just walk back and forth shoveling the snow, and I'd be done in a snap!

I live in Monument and I brought an overnight bag with me to work yesterday into the springs just in case. Good thing I did too. Haven't even been home yet. Can't wait to see how much fell at my place when I get home tonight.

Then I'm probably off to Denver tonight. Picking up my daughter tomorrow morning at the airport and don't want anything to keep me from being there on time.

good little dumping of snow you guys got there.
my mom called yesterday saying that the snow was falling in my hometown (small town in the white mountains of arizona) was getting snow at about 3"/hr.

between her telling me that and seeing these pictures, i've got to say i'm a little homesick for the snow.

all we got yesterday in the phoenix metroplex was mid-70's for temps and wind gusts of over 60mph (gusts as my house were measured at 68mph).

trade ya...

It's just wet and sloppy out there now. Good thing my trees didn't have any buds over leaves on them or I would have broken branches on the house. I have an evergreen bush out front that's pretty flat right now. My driveway is facing east and that will help the snow to melt, which is a good thing because I just don't feel like shoveling snow right now.
