I've been watching the snow fall all day,

listening to the winter weather advisories on the radio.

Any car that goes by is traveling at a snail's pace.

Copious amounts of hot coffee and cozy Uggs

are barely keeping off the chill.

I'm all wrapped up in flannel and scarves.

And finding it hard to share the enthusiasm of Pompeii,

our black Lab...

Soon the snowmobile trails around here will be open for riding.

Tourists will be flocking to the ski hill in town.

Kids will be sledding and tubing.

Man, really wishing I wasn't such a cold-weather wimp.

It all sounds like fun.
