So walked the dog in the snow (Pugs loves the snow!) which I measure about 3 inches in this hood now, and realized their was not ice under the snow (yet) and it wasn't that slick on the virgin sidewalks. So I just ran GreenLake...and it was beautiful!!! (wish I brought my camera)...
On 80th kids were sledding, and on 75th people were crosscountry skiing in the roads. There are virtually no cars. 85th and 99 or a ghost town. So I ran all away around the lake which was nice until the end. Right before the end, there was a silent meadow (not a human around), but only a 4 foot snowman sitting on a park bench watching the frigid lake. HILARIOUS!!! What a moment that was...I just stood there with my iPod playing 'O Tananbaum' by Aretha Franklin, and let the snow accumalate on Frosty and I. So at the end of the run (in the last 20 minutes) the snow has now gotten heavier again, and the wind has picked up...no visibility. The snow is swirling around and is smaller (colder) and beating against the windows. I believe this is what they call a blizzard (or atleast a mini one).
...This cracks me up (because it's a "no sh*t?!") but Seattle Times just has a Breaking News email...and thank god I didn't go it to work afterall (poor Lindsay who did):
