That's so wrong, weather aside.

Hope you can help him/her.

Southern Maryland, between DC and Baltimore............. less than an hour ago.....


On the positive side, is there a realistic chance this could keep govt. workers at home for a few days in Wash. DC ??

There's no way....... NO way.......... anyone living anywhere near DC is going to get into the city Monday, IMO.  When I think of our son's neighborhood in MD, it probably won't get plowed for days.  He takes the metro into work, but the above ground part of it will probably be closed for a few days too.

The world will be saved from the US government at least ONE day this month.  :patriot:
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

"Sometimes I think the Church would be better off if we would call a moratorium on activity for about six weeks and just wait on God to see what He is waiting to do for us. That's what they did before Pentecost."   - A. W. Tozer

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

My son Adam asked me if I thought he'd be closed on Monday.

Told him he's not going anywhere till at least Tuesday....normal driving conditions with visible pavement.

The temperatures are going to remain above freezing during the day, which will help, but make undisturbed snow very heavy.

Be careful out there....

thank you for pictures. I was told once they know......they do know when they are not wanted and you get them. Fredd follows me room to room some days. Had nothing to do with the cheeseburger I gave him when I first got him..... :whistle:  Tasha was the same way.... I was her human. We got her around July 05  from one of her former owners. They beat her and treated her badly, I found  that out after we had her. The day we got her I put her bed by the front door and her bowls in the kitchen. I thought she would run off to her previous owners place. she never did. She even started to speak. She had never did that before.

I don't think I've ever told you all that I trained my now 11 year-old choco lab to be a competitive Dock Dog!  This is from our cabin when he was 5!

My wife took this photo as I was training him.
