I like living in the Chinook Belt although I'm not fussy about the relentless wind. But it's still better than the alternative. <br /><br />But we still get freak snow storms here. Last November we had one that dropped 8 inches of wet stuff on us. It was enough to collapse the roof of the Therapeutic Riding Association's arena (still awaiting reconstruction) down the road from us. Let's face it, I wish I could be a snowbird and spend my winters down in AZ.George Stringamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11375285536941813368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-21329287559653655242015-05-07T04:26:34.431-06:002015-05-07T04:26:34.431-06:00I can't imagine that much snow - we never have...I can't imagine that much snow - we never have any and I've never seen snow in my 50+ years!
