It must be very cold.

7. We're just outside the Beltway, maybe 10 miles west of the Mall.

Our snow (9+ inches) is wet and perfectly packable, but it's supposed to drop into the teens tonight, so that's about to change!

8. Brrrrrrrr!

9. To be honest, I'm kinda digging it!

We haven't had a good winter storm around here in almost five years.

10. Have fun!

I remember shoveling snow off of our roof in the Poconos. Frozen pipes were the norm. Now I am in San Diego and am freezing here.

Good clean fun!

6. This is kind of a tradition.

Every time we get more than a couple of inches, a snowball fight erupts on the mall. Good fun!
