They stole our winter. We're supposed to have winter,
but the temperatures are way above zero, no snow. We
currently have wheather as we'd have it in march & April.
- I haven't been skiiing yet in this winter.


And here in "Sunny California" we had a long hard freeze a month ago. Pipes burst everywhere, houses flooded, a retirement home in town evacuated where some people still haven't been able to come back because the water damage was so great. I was lucky, only one irrigation circuit busted up but that one was a bear to fix.
