whoa

The world is covered in whiteness. (shut up, beatgoddess. :) )

And it's early enough in the morning that no one has walked or driven in it yet so it's all pure, untouched, beautiful, without a trace of slush anywhere.

I kinda want to run outside and stand under the lamppost and see if I meet a faun named Tummnus with an umbrella... :)

Snowblowers...

are such fun toys. They're big, they're loud, they throw snow all over the place (especially when the wind gusts are working against you) they're a massively good upper body workout... what's not to like.

I will say this though - you haven't really lived until you've had a massive spout of high velocity snow blow back and hit you in the face. That'll wake you up if nothing else.
