Same here and i want winter back

Need more snow and power outages?? I did read your follow on post so I do understand what you meant.

Two words ... Global warming. We had loads of snow in the 50s and 60s in NY state.

I don't remember much snow back then. Might be because I grew up about 9 miles SE of Los Angeles

Apparently the early 70's were big snow years in Vermont. DW has a picture of the snow being higher than the lamp post (residential) at their house. I don't know how you move that much snow out of the way. She said they made tunnels and caves.

My mom used to make us a skating rink in the back yard. My sister and I both learned to skate with Bob skates, pushing a chair.

Will the IRS police get you at the border?

Bruce, when you get in the car and drive though Cody to Yellowstone Park, then get behind all the tour busses, RVs, and folks who stop every time they think they see an animal, and get stuck behind a herd of slow moving bison in the middle of the highway as they amble along, then cut south at Fishing Bridge in the Park and head for Jackson, encountering moose, elk and bear jams and again following slow moving traffic, critters, and the inevitable road construction, then enter Grand Teton National Park with the same issues magnified, you have driven a couple of hundred miles in that 15 hours! And I ain't kidding about the slow moving bison herds - they are common and you don't just honk your horn and bust through. Um, they don't like that. Construction in the Park is an ongoing thing. The thermal activity the Park and heavy traffic, plus the roads just hanging on the side of mountainsides, added to the less than 3 months of feasible construction time, make for an interesting journey!

I dunno. My last name is hyphenated now.
I did go to Houston since I left the U.S. without any problems, but I'm still scared.

I once had a bison decide to lie down and take a nap in front of my car...
