Amen sister ! My 1st season in the Sierra Nevada (Tahoe) was big fun. I would scrape up every odd snowflake while shovelling, and thinking what fun this was . THAT changed in a big hurry. Snow piled a dozen feet high, icicles large enough to cave your scull in...
Truly a winter wonderland. Fun for the 1st few times, and then the
relentless nature of it starts to wear on you. It can be great fun, and a huge mess too.
Especially in early spring, when all of the crap that they throw on the road starts becoming airborn.
I do miss snowmobiling though ...
