Finally.

I have been spoiled.

My first winter in Colorado was a mild one. I have yet to see a "big" snowfall or winter storm. The most snow I've seen accumulate at our house or downtown has maybe been five inches.

Well, today, a day short of one week into spring, it's my lucky day.

From noaa.gov:

...BLIZZARD WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 6 AM THIS MORNING TO 6 AM MDT
FRIDAY...
...WINTER STORM WARNING IS CANCELLED...

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN DENVER HAS ISSUED A BLIZZARD

G says he hopes that I can get home today... I hope so too! I took the bus today and I think those things run regardless of the weather. I have to say, I'm glad I have a car with 4WD, even if it happens to be a Jeep!

Here's a link to our weather loop of what's going on...

I can't wait to go riding this weekend!
