Could you 'smell' the air? Was everything else stale? Have you been a bad boy? Be careful! You don't want the Langoliers to get you!

Two of the parts you enjoy I don't lol! That and fighting the crowds and TSA just makes flying a necessary evil in my book. Once on and up in air I turn the music on and look out the window at the countryside passing underneath if possible, or try to nap if cloudy. Last three times I've returned from west I've done red eyes and slept, best way to fly IMO.

Hope not, he was super pumped to be headed out there! I try to fly direct, and IF I have to make connections I won't do less than 90 minutes just to be on the safe side..... Actually, you fly direct 'cuz you hate to fly, don't lie Fred! lol

There, fixed that for you!

I was out a couple days. Wishing your sister a speedy and full recovery mappy. Those calls are never what you want to hear/happen. Super glad it wasn't worse, and from the car pic it easily could have been.

OUCH! That is TIGHT! Hope you made it!

So...it's not for kids. Right?

Travel hockey was the same when son was playing.....

So you'd like 60-70 in summer and around 0 in winter with snow? May I suggest Summit County CO???? If it hits 75-80 they go into full blown panic there!

I'll second Bob's picks. I go there 30-40 days a year now. It is an awesome (but sadly crowded) place. DEFINITELY do the snowmobiling, I highly recommend!! Stay in Dillion or Silverthorne, places are cheaper than Breck. You can get around in a car, but traffic in ski season isn't fun. They have free buses that run 6am-11pm county wide. Most run on a 15 or 30 minute schedule if you don't wish to drive. The pass over 6 is as he describes, beautiful. Copper can be a pain to get to, they are right off 70 and I have seen both off lanes backed up onto 70 with people trying to get in during the AM. Keystone and Breck have a nice mix of runs, if you are a good skier Abasin can provide some fun and challenging runs.

Exactly! Just remember......

OK, here goes.... BWI: 34.4" DCA: 25.7" IAD: 39.3" RIC: 24.8" Tiebreaker LYH: 33.1" MBY: 47.7" I am bullish that we hit a 3-4 week 'jackpot' in an otherwise cold and mundane winter.

Your ground temps should be in the 50-54 degree range right now. You should be good for a while.

I smell a conspiracy brewing........

So DCA is gonna sink below sea level over the winter???

RIC sits in a pretty good cooling spot, they can hit a freeze pretty early some years when others around don't.

BWI: 11/13 IAD: 10/16 DCA: 11/13 RIC: 10/26 Tiebreaker: 7.56

We always hooked ours into the soffit under the eaves on the back of the house, near a window so we could watch. About 20 foot off the ground, no problems from animals, but bees LOVED them. They drained one in about 2 hours one day, you couldn't see the container from the mass of bees on it.

Yep, they are ornery little devils!!!

What is this 'full sun' you are speaking of? Haven't seen the sun since Friday afternoon here. Still heavy cloud cover at 1:30 pm here, although have made it above freezing at 33.4 degrees. That is first time since Friday.

Just a bit more fell overnight, recorded 0.5 for yesterday and making a 4.9 storm total here. 3.5 is on the ground.

Happened here last night twice! Frustrating to say the least. I think it happened in C'ville also.

Maybe you can still hit that foot mark yet!

Same here. Been lightly snowing last 3 hours here, picked up a new 0.4, so that gets me to just under 5 inches at 4.8 for a storm total. Hey, I'll take it
