      People in Tennessee do the same thing - why? When I told my uncle, who lives in Pennsylvania, he thought it was funny, and had the same reaction. Do people combine the two to make some kind of insulation? If snowed in, I can think of better things to eat and drink.

      How is Mississippi? I'm heading down to Picayune/Carriere for Christmas.

        We have had snow for more than a month already, and here in Southern Finland it is about two feet thick already. Looks like a second very snowy winter in a row. No problem for Santa's sleigh this year either...

        The image is from mid-November

          My milky-"bready" grocery store is just across the street (some 10-20 metres?). No problem as long as the trucks bringing the fresh stuff can get in in the mornings. 😒

            First fog of the year
            We had our first fog of the year and the first day that shorts would not be appropriate. Other than that, the weather was just ducky.

            Just ducky.

              Dang! Roger, how can you stand it? 🤣

              My neighbor on Saturday before it got deep.

                  Dave, ask me that when it is 117 degrees F and you can fry an egg on the pavement. I have done that in years past. Store keepers here wrap door handles in foam so customers don't burn their hands. My mom, who was still driving at 93 (sometimes on sidewalks) wore her little old lady white gloves so she could hold the steering wheel.

                  However we do get snow in the Mountains. Every year I say I will photograph snow in the mountains and every year it melts before I can get there.

                    Csaba, I hope you never need more than that little shovel of yours.

                    Roger, I'll make up the guest room and you can come to take all the snow pictures you want. No fear about it melting. It'll be here until April.

                      In Berlin for more than two weeks now we have lots of snow falling nearly every day.
                      Not that it is piling up in meters, but we didn't have this much before Christmas in one or two decades.
                      Many people here are complaining about the weather, but I just love the snow!
                      Inspires me to go boarding (my favorite setting: me, my board and a hillside with fresh snow) unfortunately it is really far to go to the mountains from here.kamera_23.jpgkamera_15.jpg

                        My family just took a short trip to Berlin when the snow started, but they reported that there was no shortage on Glühwein. Snow somehow belongs together with that...

                            Yes, Glühwein is very popular now. They sell it on every Christmas market, and Berlin seems to have like hundreds of them. And there is a large one right in front of my new home next to château Charlottenburg. Nice aromatic scent in the air and lots of snow, I'm in the mood to make peace with this crazy year 2010. 😆

                                          We have a huge snow storm forecasted for this weekend. 4-8 inches possible, which is a LOT this far south.

                                          The man on the radio said today that this storm could be a "two loafer".
