working virtual from home today. :aok

Not much snow if you're from the midwest, but you have to understand that around here....
A) Most folks around here don't know HOW to drive in snow (Think Californian's who have transplanted here in the past 30 years!)
B) LOTS of hills and mountains. Seattle has a couple streets steeper than those found in San Francisco.
C) Snow is always an excuse for the yuppies to call in sick. :)

Crystal opened here in the South end, but limited runs open.
Hopefully they'll have everything open next week-end. Then it will be a Motor home and ski/snowboard week-end!  :rock

Staking rink?  Send it my way!  (grew up skiing in the east.  I'll take some nice "hard pack" any day of the week, long as I can sharpen my edges :D)

Nowadays I'm happy if I can get out at all in a season.   :frown:

I will stop by your house and dump fake snow flakes so you don't feel left out.  :P
