VIOL = my antidote for these crazy piles of snow. You too?

Who else is clicking on the forum obsessively to counteract the oppressive piles of snow outside?

I'm in Boston, and we just got an entire winter's worth of snow in less than a week.

VIOL and Spice cam, take me awayyyy..........

What oppressive piles of snow outside?

: Escape from the garage

All the best,

Kevin

PS: That is after the plow came, and before the second snowstorm...

Just outside Boston and I am buried. I did not even try to go in to work today. The T is a nightmare right now as you know and I rely on the commuter rail to get to work. But I fly out Saturday, and there is NO storm scheduled for then! Huzzah! My deck might collapse from six feet of snow and the icicles growing on my house might actually go into the ground when I am away but whatever. I'll deal with it when I'm back.

We don't have nearly as much snow here in PA as you guys do up north but I am still extremely tired of it. I'm with you Liamsaunt. Flying out on Saturday and hoping the ground hog's prediction is incorrect!!

36 more days for me, but a few trip reports will help to get me through this!

It used to be every hour, but VIOL is now an every day habit. There's not a lot going on here these days. We're just back from two weeks, so I'll post a photo album when I finish going through and organizing things. I think our TR will be, well, brief. This was our 39th visit and I think I'll just highlight the new things.

The New Englanders are sure having a tough time of it. My Canadian friends are digging for daylight. Good luck to Liamsaunt on your travels!

Cheers, RickG

Western NY reporting in, after moving a sh*t ton of snow! And yes, a daily occurrence checking in here to chase away the winter blues.

Having the lightest snow year I can EVER remember.
Feeling bad for you folks that are getting dumped on tho .... it's our usual winter scene. Dreaming of VI EVERY.SINGLE.DAY!

No trip in sight, so PLEASE be generous with your photos. It keeps us crazies somewhat sane.

It is snowing AGAIN

I am going to pretend that I am here instead:

Now that I think about it, I have not gone to this particular beach for at least five years! Maybe I will visit next week.

Ahhh that photo is helping me ignore the snow, Becky! Thank you

Safe travels and have a wonderful trip!

Please post DAILY trip reports (or at least photos!) to help those of us stuck back in the tundra (more snow coming Sun/Mon/Tues).....

I will try but no guarantees. We are staying at a house we rented many years ago, and the wifi was pretty much non-existent. Unless the owners have upgraded things, which I am doubting, I won't be able to post photos from my camera here until I am home. I will likely post phone pictures to the facebook St. John Peeps group though, if you are part of that bunch of folks

lark22 · Post by **lark22** » Thu Feb 05, 2015 12:21 pm

I am! I'll keep an eye out over there.

Didn't mean to pressure you, I'm just in severe STJ withdrawal, and you know how that goes

Bon voyage!!
