We are having the strangest weather too. Snow (sorry about the 4 letter
word) It snowed last night, and this morning, now it is raining on top of
the snow, with a winter storm warning for tonight. Maybe we will have 3'
and have a snow day off work and school. It will be the first one in
years. Colorado never closes school for snow at least it hasn't happened
in the last 4-5 years. This has been one heck of a week here, we might as
well have one more thing.
