It was weird stuff....me and Ginger challenged the neighbors to a snowball fight at about 00:30am, so there were 4 adults and 4 kids running riot on the back ally
the snow ( if ya can call it that ) actually looked more like someone had opened the bedroom window and emptied a bean bag in the garden.

That wouldn't be real snow, it would be ice pellets, sort of halfway between snow and freezing rain. (We Canadians are experts on snow.

)Last weekend we had the biggest blizzard of the decade ...60cm of snow, gale force winds ... a real doozey. We are still digging out in Kingston. Thirty big plows owned by the city and a couple of hundred private plows (some guys put blades on their 4x4s and clean up parking lots and big driveways worked full time for two days to make the streets and the sidewalks passable. Now we are almost back to normal, and we have above zero weather for a couple of days which should put us in good shape for the next big one.
