Snow

[Slava]

As it is the season in this neck of the woods, I thought it appropriate.

I have 45 inches of it built up, not drifts, in my back yard, and more forecast for the weekend, having had four inches
last night.

I see that DC is going to get dumped on, in possibly a record-breaking way:

I like this part: widespread storm total accumulations of 20 to
30 inches... with some locations in excess of 30 inches.

Yes, they are really getting dumped on. I have branches
on spruce and pine trees almost ready to break, as the
snow has frozen to ice. Sure hope it does not happen.

I see you changed your avatar: a Parade? A statue in a
park??

WOW O WOW!
That is magnificent. Largest free-standing in the world.
Quite impressive, and should be for such a tragedy.
Oh, our wars are something else, in history.
