I tell ya...after looking @ the pics & conditions (HELL of a lot of stoke on here these past 2 days) it looked so good everywhere that this has to have been truly the most epic storm in a while in...

Here's the thing--the over the head blower @ Jay was so amazing yesterday that *I* was feeling them here...in southwestern CT...IN MY CLASSROOM!

The kids were like "Whoa, wtf was that Ms....

Okay, THIS is the only photo in recent memory that has made me really freaking jealous. That's so cool!

It must have been breathtaking to stop and see this majestic, regal animal in real life...

It's awesome to see TC back in action. WTG man! :yourock:

Another "snow" day here on the coast...sleep being #1 on my agenda. :)

No snow here, only ICE and lots of it--landing on top of the 2...

Hah! I was going to say the same...is it summer here or are we expecting an epic something-something (yay!)? Anyway, it seems we'd better take up a tampon collection. :tongue:

I am very happy for...

Noice! My kiddo used to race for the K team a few years ago, and I remember going to races @ Middlebury. We found some good trees there b/4 and after waiting for him to race.

We got over a foot of snow, schools are closed again (YAY!!!!!!!!!!), and they're ordering trucks off I-95 b/c there's too much snow. NYC public schools even closed, a rarity.

We're supposed to...

Nuking here and even heard thunder! Wish I could send it North.
However, since it's here I'm hoping for delay/school closing tomorrow.

So here's my TR (no photos, it was too intense to stop and take any):

* Up at 5am, head into kitchen and whip up a hearty ham-eggs-cheese intro to the day

*Crawl under table and get remote,...

Thanks for the info Freeheel!

ML, I'm very interested in a class like this. How long was the class? If 2 days, did you get to crash there or have to drive in for day 2? How much?

I'm hoping to take a WFA class if not this...

Nice to see VT padding up nicely...just in time for my arrival Friday!.:cool:
Awesome pix of MBSB too, that was deep!
I only wish I could send you guys the god-damned 12-20 inches CT received...

Petrics, what is the object in front of the PBR? If it contains bacon (and I think it does)....rock on!
