No fair, Amy -- could you send some of it my way?? Sorry, I know most 
people (other than skiers) don't usually *ask* for snow... but we in 
southern Wisconsin had a very dreary *brown Christmas* this year. 
It's hard to fully enjoy winter, and especially the holiday season, 
without at least a few inches of snow on the ground (active children, 
like mine, need to go sledding etc. during their time off school or 
they start to get serious cabin fever...).

sledding hill)
