Lots of snow

I guess it was just a matter of time before Colorado got its share of snow since the east coast was hogging all of it Everyone around Colorado is complaining about how much snow they have (1-2 feet) I am just laughing to myself, where I live I haven't been able to see my C320 or my Focus since yesterday, they are completely completely covered in snow, and my dad's GMC 1500 pickup is covered to above the hood I've deciced that I am cleaning out the garage so I can park my cars in it ASAP! If I hada digital camera I would post a before and after picture of my dinning room, which sits about 6 feet above the ground and the snow is covering the windows halfway which makes that about 8 feet. I think even the 4Matic won't help for a while

I love snow in Colorodo, the more the better. Can never have enough of that good Colorodo River water in So Cal! We are getting severe weather tomorrow, 30 % chance of rain.

I need to come and visit to sample that exclusive gasoline! I'll trade you, several tons of snow for a few barrels of 91

We have you all trumped. Come visit us up North here in Canada. We pay the highest tax in the G8, have more snow than you can point a stick at, and pay about $2.30 USD/ US gallon.

But tonight it is spring.

More importantly, can you order a Denver omelette in Denver? And, why do they call it a Denver omelette?

Good question! To tell you the truth I don't know...but then I don't know what a Denver omlette is I stick to what I know, water and steak!

Water and steak, I see you are on a carb restricted diet also. I would love steak for breakfast too but it's just doesn't feel right. A Denver omelette is made with ham, pepper and onions, I have a least 3-4 a week.

We do have something like that here. However, in the little town that I go to for breakfast they have a habit of naming everything in a strange manner. They have great food which is why I can even stand living outside a town of about 2000 people. There just is something about small towns that I like, that charm just is lost in a city. But if I do need something that they can't offer Colorado Springs is only 15 minutes out and Denver 45 minutes. Looking at the ingredients of a Denver Omelette I don't think I would like that, especially for breakfast (no need to be gassy from onions already in the morning :p).

Well, I finally got some pictures. My favorite one is actually of the Focus, the way the snow sits on it makes it look like a hearse


But at least it didn't take nearly as long as to "free" as the C320 Touring:
