Bing would be pleased
After writing the title, I realized that most people today would connect the comment to that new search engine and not Mr. Crosby's classic "White Christmas", but let this be educational for the younger generation (although I do prefer the Four Tops version as featured in Home Alone). Back to the point, we received a fair amount of snow. Sorry, but I don't buy into some of the mega-totals, since there was considerable wind and drifting. Unless you have a legit measuring device that contains directly fallen snow and restricts drifting, I am doubting some of the unofficial totals exceeding 2 feet. Glenn & Jimmy have done a great job plowing the roads here at Strawberry Park, and most area schools had delays today (some even canceled--enjoy your snow day Kate!). Bringing the truck in for the deer repairs--could be out of action for a week. Just a reminder to winter campers: when the temps get down low, be sure your hose & heat tape are working, and many people suggest keeping the cabinets open to allow heat to get into the areas where the pipes may freeze. Some are strong believers in leaving the faucet trickling, but I am hesitant to suggest in case something clogs and you flood your trailer (maybe the tub is the best place to keep a drip). While I am sure there will be at least one more post before Christmas (need to put up our holiday newsletter), for those who may not check this as regularly, have a great holiday. Today is probably the last chance for gift certificates if you want them to arrive in time for Christmas. Enjoy the snow--we had fun running the luge course at the house.

Can you post some pictures of the campground buried in snow?
