Maybe not. Modern cars are pretty air tight. But jeez, isn't snow ugly once the gleaming whiteness wears off and the muck and mire of the streets gets mixed in?<br /><br />The snow around here is still hanging around. There's a house up the street which has a front path still thickly coated with ice. The piles of snow that remain are hard as cement.<br /><br />What a winter. I wonder if we've seen the last of the snow.<br /><br />Rocky just had to climb up the side of a snow bank to try and lift his little leg since he won't 'pee' unless there's some enticing scent that draws him in HA!Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742343364632742295.post-87595858386923523192011-02-10T17:10:22.721-05:002011-02-10T17:10:22.721-05:00That is just unreal!
