Snow on the beach

There is some kind of strange, white stuff falling from the sky this morning :confused:

O, the weather outside's inviting...
'til the dog did something frightening...
and although there's nowhere else to go...
yellow snow, yellow snow, yellow snow... :hysterical:

Ah, Frank Zappa in the evening.

Well right about that time, people,
A fur trapper
Who was strictly from commercial
(Strictly Commershil)
Had the unmedicated audacity to jump up from behind my igyaloo
(Peek-a-Boo Woo-ooo-ooo)
And he started in to whippin' on my fav'rite baby seal
With a lead-filled snow shoe . . .

We got about 10" here. I got called in Friday to work in case of power outages. Spent the night in Wake Forest, got sent home yesterday morning at 11:00 and never had to work. Easy OT :thumbsup:

The drive home wasn't easy. If you think people in Virginia get stupid with snow on the road just go to North Carolina. Then again I guess a few of them that I passed running 65 mph on roads that had never been cleared thought I wasn't wrapped to tight either. :whistle:

Yeah, but were you driving that big ass bucket truck? That thing probably weighs enough to crunch right down to the pavement.

It's slicker than owl $h!# out on the roads this morning. I could have used a set of tire chains.

My sister's in-laws had a place on the outskirts of Atlantic City in the 60s.

I love winter/snow at the beach.

The gray sky melds with the dark water.

Desolate & beautiful, all at the same time.

(And I miss The Mothers of Invention).

Coming from Michigan, I tend to find myself getting aggravated a lot in situations like this weekend. I have a car, and find myself cursing for people to get off the roads if they are that scared to drive. I hate cruising along only to come up on someone driving 5-10 mph. It was the weekend, everything was closed for the most part, stay your butt at home if driving in those conditions scare you.

The only thing I hate about getting snow like we did, is it makes me miss home, lol.

Well I used the snow to pull a quick one on my dear swwetheart Young. The guy on the news was talking about the Toyota recall and a few minutes later we were on a backstreet covered with snow. I tromped the gas and yelled its stuck. She never batted an eye and said "sweety you driving a Korean car not Japansese."
