Snowed up here at Hearst Castle last night for about an hour. It's still on the ground, but starting to melt a bit. Still 33 degrees. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)

Okay as long as we're on the topic here....

[rant mode]

Driving to work today was un-frickin' believeable. I know what I just said about Portland drivers in the snow, saddly the same should be said about front range drivers here in Colorado. Barely any snow stuck to the road, maybe an inch or so of slush. At yet, in my 25 minute drive to work I encountered the everpresent stamp of marketing's effect on the modern driver. Three vehicles spun off the road and/or impacted with a berm or such. What were they? No, it wasn't the 20 year old tercell on bald tires, he was the one driving 20 miles an hour on a 60 mph two lane road... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif) It was, get this.... A new Land Rover Discovery, an Acura MDX, and a BMW X5... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/av-943.gif) Geez... Just because you spent $50k on your all wheel drive luxo yacht, does not mean you are immune to the elements!!! Me, I had no problem driving through the inch or so of slush at the posted limit. Why? Cause I have... you know... wait for it... SNOW TIRES!!!!!! Geez people! It's the freakin' rocky mountains!! Get some bloody snow tires for your $50k fashion statement!!

[\rant mode]

Thanks, I had to get that out...

I feel kinda silly posting this stuff when you guys that live in the real snow country have to deal with this and worse all the time, but Thursday morning was a surprise. The nice thing is that it delayed my having to go to work by two hours! No, I didn't take the 914. According to the paper, the last time it snowed this much in March was 1989. Just one year ago this weekend, the wife and I took the Porsche to the beach (70 miles) because the temperature was in the mid 60's. Lord, I love Oregon.

Let me just start by stating the forecast for sunday in the greater Mpls/St Paul, MN area. "STARTING TONIGHT...7-9" OF SNOW. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) SNOW WILL TAPER OFF IN THE MORNING AND THE TOTAL FOR MONDAY IS JUST 2". (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) So there you have it...almost a foot of snow and I just got my transaxle back on the car and shifting nicely. All dressed up and no where to go! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif)

Right now I can sit on my back patio and see snow on tops of the moutains. Looks pretty similar to the pic that Aaron posted. Pretty wild for a place that hits 115 in the summer (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)
