I thought I’d share some more snow pics, for all you warmer weather types... You’re missing out!
I-405, just as the snow is starting up..
My neighborhood (Same trip).
Finally, a picture of the front of the house!
And, as promised... I went out this morning and built me a snowman! I haven’t done that in years, and it’s no wonder why. These things are a pain to build! It’s only 25 degrees out so the snow refuses to pack together. So, I had to build the base in-place then roll it to make it the internationally standardized 2’6” wide (I’m an engineer.. I have to follow specifications!). A quick ransacking of a nearby Rhododendron completes the ‘creepiness’ factor that all real snowmen must exude.
Merry Christmas!

Well, the inhumanity of modern kids has reared its ugly head... The Snowman is dead! I got home on Christmas night to find some punk-ass-jive-turkey pricks had kicked it over and stomped on his head. In my own driveway at that! These weren’t small kids either, judging from the size of the shoe prints left around. Real Christmas spirit, eh?
