I woke up to snow again this morning!!

Ugh!! I even started working on a new photo blog last night just to share my upcoming amazing Yellowstone hiking, fishing and making fun of tourist adventures with you but now I feel like I am trapped in an eternal winter here.

A little sympathy would be nice.

If you are supposed to be the Anti-Christ as you've proclaimed, perhaps Hell has just frozen over...

Aww, you do have my sympathy. Unfortunately I can't do anything else to alleviate your snowy situation.

Looking forward to that new photo blog, though...

Yeah, what happened to the global warming we were promised? I think Al Gore lied. It was cold here too this morning. I think it dipped into the 60's. Thank God it's back to 85 and sunny

You for sure have my sympathy.

Since the beginning of March, we had so much snow here in Austria.
Especially in my area.
So I took pictures, reflected on this-snow and that-snow, posted about it and got all kinds of excited reactions from people all over the world, who in reality hardly ever have the chance to get a grisp on snow.

I went swimming here on Monday. In the same way that people across the world love to go surfing but can't, people here would love to wake up and go out into the snow but can't.

enjoy it, you're lucky, all we have is beach sand sun and water

  No, I'm serious.
  
  We'd love to be in the snow, but we'd have to drive 1500kms and it's got to be the right time of year and even then may may not even be enough...we just have beach beach beach...how much sand can you have in your bed anyway? There is a cut off point

  LOL @ cut-off point for the beach! Ah well, I reached my cut-off point for snow.

  I grew up on the beach...from 8 in the morning til 6 at night. I often forget to go swimming but it's beautiful when I remember and just fall into the waves, it's like heaven.

  Yes, we pay for it all right. Weather in Southern Cali sucks! One day it's beautiful, than it's freezing, than it's hotter than hell! Our weather has tourette's syndrome!
