Jeannie T., We are just losing our snow up here under the Mogollion Rim. We got around 12 inches in 2 days & then we got more rain. I'm glad the snow stayed on the ground for a bit..because it will soak into the soil & we have been so dry up here for so long, that all our trees, shrubs & all other vegetation needs water. The sun was out for most of the day...so I imagine that we will have just a few patches of snow here & there. It's good for a child to get out & play in the snow. It will tire them out, that's for sure. I know someone was kind enough to explain snow cream on this list..but I'm still curious how one makes it. Probably won't have much use for it this year...but come next year & if we are any where around here, we may. My thoughts right now is if we are able to sell our house, we will either go to Prescott Valley (with is N/E of us) or to the Valley which is south of us. I don't mind the Valley...but it gets so hot down there in the summer & most people leave then. We are not prepared to spend that kind of money to leave for a few months. Our next door neighbors don't like the winters up here, so they go to Phoenix for the winters. I guess they have thought about selling their home..but they like it up here..just not in the winter. Ken is way into his 80's & it's hard to tell with Margaret. Doesn't really matter. I just know that we are going to have to take what we can get. I'm not looking forward to this spring. There are going to be many changes around here. For the time being, I am trying to block them out. I prefer not to worry about things until they happen. Guess you could call me a Pollyanna. ~J in AZ ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, January 29, 2010 11:15 PM Subject: [SOUTHERN-CHAT] Snow, beautiful snow...... > 'Snow...beautiful snow,' hubby intones as he gazes out the doorway at the > blanket of snow on our yard.....Neither of us wants it, but tomorrow will > take advantage of it and make some snow cream....We have 5 or more inches > and it's still snowing..Luckily the lower edge of TN. is getting snow AND > ice but we just have snow...so far....I called Son and they said Buzz was > crashed...tired of playing in the snow all afternoon...Jeannie T > ____________________________________________________________ > Senior Assisted Living > Put your loved ones in good hands with quality senior assisted living. > Click now! > http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL2141/c?cp=klh6tUz8E9AYuG6J1gfSgAAAJ1CPGLcpVk6nfU7-_QzYU3IqAAYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASUQAAAAA= > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the > quotes in the subject and the body of the message
