Dude, have you tried to drive in that shit yet? Seriously. It's not east coast/midwestern dry snow. It's icy underneath, because they don't have salt truck.

Besides, getting snowed in is the coolest thing in the world. Embrace the drama!

It's not a big whoop. If you drive slowly, you don't skid. Ray drove to and from work in it today. They are forbidden to salt the roads here because it may kill a clump of endangered crabgrass.

Getting snowed in IS fun. But the first word of snowed in is SNOW. This hardly qualifies. And if I can go outside in a tanktop and mules, they can't even use "cold" as an excuse. Trust me, the hard wet chilly rain here is far more shitty to be out in.

Hmm I'll agree with you on the cold damp west coast winter totally sucks. This past freeze we have had was so nice as I could actually get warm.
BTW, maybe I'll come up on Ted's next trip; they are usually the 2nd week of the month. He drives up after work on Sunday, but we might come on Saturday so I'll have Sunday and Monday.
You make Portland sound so desireable I can't stay away for too much longer.
Prepare yourself to be disappointed when you meet me.

Dissapointed? Won't you do magic tricks and speak in tongues? Come on, now...

It was over 60 degrees and sunny here today. Absolutely gorgeous. Come on up and we'll go on a murderous rampage against cyclists who refuse to obey traffic laws here. Are you still thinking you might come? Now is the time. The house is SPOTLESS so you'll think we aren't slobs here.

Well, okay. Just as long as you avoid driving over any bridges, exactly my mother cautions!

Oh, come on now. Ir's Portland. I don't think I can go up the hall to take a pee without crossing at least one bridge.
