I meant JD was being sarcastic, not you. I doubt very much it's raining in Northfield.

see, you guys are getting the hang of indigenous Yankee humor now! No facial expression, no smilies. That's what I got grilled on about a year ago here when I tried to do it, so I gave it up. But I still get trapped now and then, so I just drop it. Mixed audience.

Anyways, it sure is nice that all this fresh snow has obviated the grumpiness that prevailed on this forum a few short months back. Snow does wonders to sooth the soul....8)

We're getting dry slotted which is fine by me since we went the freezing rain earlier this afternoon.

not liking what I see on the radar. red in making it into SVT.

Hopefully they're spared

...and hopefully Cannon gets hammered with 12+ and no mixing. While I want get to enjoy powder on Sunday as it will all be tracked out, it sounds like the base is close for opening several glades and I'd like to get in them, especially Kinsman.

Wonderful skiing today in northern VT. Of course, I drove through horrific conditions to get to Middlebury Snow Bowl today, only to find out that most of the mountain was on wind hold. Wind didn't seem that bad to me and I decided to just make the best of it, since we were already there. We played on the little slope, mostly in the woods on that side, and the powder was fantastic.
