| | | Spring Snows in NY
Inside:
Outside:
I don't even remember how many times I had to explain that an 8 yard wool kilt with wool hose was actually warmer than wearing most pants.
For the record: Modern MacDonald tank, faux rabbit cheapie sporran, family crested kilt pin. And I did fix the hose from the first pic and in the second it was shot from a little above because my wife wouldn't go out onto the deck with the snow falling so it really did fall at proper length.

I know what you mean about the warm factor, I went into work the other day and it was snowing, one guy looks at me and says "You know it's snowing dont you"
I was warmer the he was.

My back yard yesterday. Aaarrrgh! We got a foot of heavy, wet snow. Four of my trees went down, and lots of branches. Power outages all over the region. No, I wasn't kilted yesterday. I'm a mailman (Double aaarrrrgh!!).
It looks like a black-and-white photo, but it isn't...!

Woodsheal, that's a bummer!  My sympathies!
Don't know whether I'd trade your wet, heavy snow for the thunderstorms we've had around here which have spawned small tornadoes . . .

It's all the same. The severe T-storms became the Nor'easter that hit that area... :-\ Have had some thunderstorms in the Seattle area, but nothing really major. Just the normal spring storms.

I just checked our local forecast. Rain turning to heavy snow later today, then lots of snow (10-20cms) tomorrow with hight winds. Should make the trip out of town interesting, as we're leaving for Las Vegas first thing tomorrow morning. Yay. Good thing I have an AWD Durango. |
