    We're not supposed to get any, or not much anyway. I'm so glad I live in New England where it doesn't snow. hahaha

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Dang Wess - if that isn't the bad stuff, you need to leave now and head to Georgia. There's a house for sale right down the road if you like the water! :)

    We're closing in on 4-5 inches, nothing like what the east coast is expecting/getting. We've got the wood stove going and watching the snow come down. Won't be a problem unless it impacts my ABT cook for the superbowl.

    Nice pictures of the snow. You have a little on the ground.

    Hope your power stays up and going. Gets cold without heat.

    If the amount of snow you get is directly related to the amount of rain I got yesterday, then all I gotta say is watch out. it started raining yesterday at 9AM and didn't stop till 11PM. My back yard looks like a lake. Had to be close to 4" of rain.

    Good luck, stay warm, and to remember to wrap your pipe. :woohoo:

    I was just playing around with you some. I wish I was at the beach now...with a cold O'Douls in one hand, some BBQ shrimp in the other, and dark sunglasses on so I could look at anything I wanted too and the wife not know it! :)

    You know Wess, if I had posted something as this....that didn't have to do with food or a BGE, and didn't put OT in the subject...GG would have scolded me!!

    :blush: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :blush:

    Of course, I am just trying to be a smartass here! Good luck with the power situation. But hey, at least you can still cook without power! Last weekend when they were talking like we might get significant ice in our area, I we to the store and loaded up on things that would be perfect BGE cooks. Folks were looking at me awfully funny when I was checking out with ribs, steaks, whole chickens, etc etc. They were thinking it was a **** weekend to cookout......I say any weekend is an EGGcellent weekend to cookout!!
