    Snow is just a mythological phenomenon that some people say is true but around here, folks just don't buy it. Much like Dragons, Big Foot or Alien landings in Roswell, I have seen many people post pictures of it, but I think this is really just one of those mass conspiracy kinda things where alot of pranksters post pictures of 'snow in their front yards', just to throw others off

    Maybe someday, I will get down to McMurdo and see if this 'snow' thing is really true or not.

    Heheh...well would this have been better in dry dirt...?

    As much as I'm sick of the snow this year already...I wouldn't give it up.
    I like getting my 500 a little snowy now and then..
