Funny Wayne, real funny.... NOT!!! Winter began in SLC over a month ago. I've been buried, flooded, and even taught my Mustang how to ice skate already.I'm with Alex this year! I HATE SNOW! Can I just lock myself in my room and come out in April? J.

my dad was in iceland on winter solstice years ago and took a picture of the sun at high noon.... it is about that far over the horizon.... with nothing but frozen tundra-esque topo all around...i love that pic and have an 11 x 18 of it framed on my wall...so when i start whining about winter, i look at that pic and feel very very very lucky...... i am sooooo happy the days begin to lengthen soon!!!!!! wooooohooooo!!!!! ![](https://mustangsandmore.com/ubb/biggrin.gif) kk

And just think about it...we were going to join him in Iceland when he found us a house...He did...but couldn't get any furniture from base housing...(all used at the time)..He told me that we probably wouldn't like up there anyway!! That was a very long 6 months!!!
