Can I send it to you? I'd rather be somewhere warmer.
It was just a dusting and is now gone, but inland/north they're getting more.

Please do, winter's the only good season Buffalo has.
I'm just hoping my new snowboard fits in the back of my MINI.

Tough little cars. Glad she was not hurt.

The weather here is miserable today. Only 70F and grey overcast. It was up to 95F one day last week.
