Thanks for reminding me. Sympathy and prayers during this time. One of the most underated songs, from one of the most underated albums John Denver ever did. Thanks for reminding me.

If I saw a snowman going 75 mph, I'm not sure if I'd laugh or be afraid. I remember one year when the valley got 7 inches and it was beautiful seeing the giant saguaro's covered with snow. By 1 o'clock in the afternoon it was all gone. Your Das Mutt reminds me of a lab pup I had. Came home from work one day and the lab must had gotten into a terrible fight with my big stuffed chair. Lost a chair but had the lab for 16 years. Kirk,

Most of the snow has melted, but there's still a lot on the Four Peaks and a dusting on top of the Superstitions. (No word on the fate of the snowman.) And yes, folks down in Tucson filled up the beds of their pickups on Mt Lemmon to take to their yards (doubt it'd last long down in the valley). Hope none of those twisters visited your neighborhood. <B>Kirk</B> For Richard: Sunday as I was taking Das Mutt to the Bark Park (she’s repaying me for that by tearing another hole in the wall and making a run for it–three times in the last two days), I passed a guy who was doing 75 on the freeway with a snowman on his hood.

Lemmon visit after shoveling snow and piling it on their cars. On the rare occasion it did snow in the desert the locals would scrape just a little softball sized hole on their windshield to see out of. We had a little weather Sunday with 103 tornadoes in Missouri. I remember years ago when I lived in Tucson, thinking how weird it was that people would drive down from a Mt.

We got two inches of rain (after going 143 days without so much as a drop), while Carefee and Cave Creek got five inches of <B>snow</B>. The Four Peaks are covered in snow, the Supertitions got a white crown for the first time in years, and there's snow on the McDowell Mountains north of Mesa for the first time that I can remember (and I've been here nearly 30 years). While Montanans are used to snow, folks down here aren't. (When I was at NAU in the mid-80's, we always knew who the folks were that came up to ski at the SnowBowl: they were the folks going down Santa Fe Avenue--now known as Route 66--<I>sideways</I>.) There were some folks in North Scottsdale who tried to snort the stuff, confusing it with <I>another</I> type of white powder. ;-) <B>Kirk &#38; Sheba</B> (who's sleeping off her romp through the temporary lake at the bark park--she has plenty of "moxis") Lots of Boots around here in AZ got their thirsts quenched Saturday.
