Still snowing!
It seems the prospect of a white Christmas is no longer in doubt. It would take a lot of melting to change things at this point! Our neighborhood has been transformed into a ski-in-ski-out community. That should bring property values up a bit ;-).
Even the courts closed on Monday, so Scott stayed home and we skied to the Post Office to collect the mail. Yesterday I skied to the grocery store, but the snow was more packed and dirty from all the cars so the conditions were not as good. I awoke this morning to at least two inches of fresh powder and it's still snowing hard. We're supposed to get several inches this morning with a possibility of rain this afternoon (that seem unlikely, as it's only 26 degrees at 9 a.m.
With a little bit of packing, the neighborhood streets should be ideal for skating tomorrow! Skiing on Christmas and we don't even have to drive to the mountain--how cool is that??

We broke out yesterday afternoon. It took us over an hour-and-a-half to get to Woodburn, but it was smooth sailing after Salem, except for the road rager who tried to run us into the ditch around Coburg.
It feels strange to be down here in Southern Oregon with the normal grey wet winter and a pickup with a bed completely filled with snow.
