Yeah same here everyone is starting to leave if they havent yet. Im on the east side of the Cascades so we dont get nearly the precip of the Seattle area which only gets cold rain, we get snow if anything makes it over the mountainsCome to Colorado... Cold winters, dry, clean air, and all the snow birds have gone south for the winter!
Hmm I wonder i they have a name for southerners who go up north for the winter?Come to Colorado... Cold winters, dry, clean air, and all the snow birds have gone south for the winter!
Texans.
People who've never driven in the mountains should NOT be allowed to drive over Colorado mountain passes in the winter. Ever.

Seriously... imagine a flatlander in a 30 foot RV going over that pass. It's not a pretty sight. It's scary to ME and I've been over it dozens of times... and this video does not capture the worst of it. Now imagine that with a foot of snow on the road and more coming down.
It's almost enough to make you cry.
It's spectacular. That cliff is about 1000 feet straight down... here's a shot I took from further up the pass looking back toward the place where the video was shot. The SUV that I circled is about where the video ended.

I moved from Hawaii to Washington and most people call me an idiot
. People always ask why, I tell them "for the winter."WOW did you shoot that yourself. There are a few places like that up here in the cascades. Very picturesqueTexans.

Sometimes I get the same probably with you tube vids even though I copy and paste the url the same way every time; just happens I suppose
In 720P, although I'd be leary holding the slippery sucker that is the SF on the back of a cycle at speedNo, I just swiped it from YouTube, I haven't had anything that will shoot video in ages. Next time I go over the pass I'll shoot it with my phone.

Oh and not to mention flying through snow and looking at all the white covered roofs!
Hawaii would be nice to visit but I really want to live where it snows. I remember last year we we're flying back from our honeymoon we went from Vegas, to MSP airport then on home. We had something crazy like 10 minutes to get from one terminal to the other at MSP and while running all I could see was heaps and heaps of white fluffy snow but because we had to be on another plane all I got was a picture
I have a heavy rugged case so I won't drop it. Besides, we drive over that pass in the F350 diesel 4x4. No worries about dropping my phone from inside that monster.
These are not the best pictures, the lighting in this room is a little dim:
I hear that. Weird having kids with no school tomorrow on a wednesday night. I guess its just a prelude to 2 weeks from nowBored.
Need to look for icons, and I've spent the last hour looking at lolcats. Need to clean my kitchen, and I'm posting here. I'm feeling exceptionally lazy this evening, and I just don't care.
