Just finished a famcam with my brother and sisterinlaw. The kids sure enjoyed seeing them in Phoenix, live and in color, from our little 1890's house in a rural town of around seven hundred inhabitants. Amazing times, goldarnit.
Coincidently, we wish them a happy chick-movie experience for the rest of the evening.

The snow's finally starting to taper off again. Maybe just a little bit more...
I went out to play with the kids, they had been outside for at least two hours straight. Three against one are not very good odds, but I'm still quite a bit larger than any of them.
We had a great time until I blew out my poor old Sorrels. The uppers have come off completely on the right, so I reckon it's time to investigate some new ones after eighteen years. Not a bad run, neh?

As of 3:00pm, it's snowing after an hour's hiatus at around noon. This is nice.
With no training in html, I keep trying to tweak this blogger template to be a bit more content-rich and well, attractive. I hope it doesn't start disintegrating like my previous attempt at a webpage. If it does, I think momentum is with me and I'll be able to fix it pretty quick.
The kids are running amok here in the newborn-house, with mom abed and dad spending too much time at the keyboard. It it fun to listen to them play their games downstairs, squeals of delight about the "hot lava" that someone's about to step in or the "panda bear cowboy" who is here to save the day. I'd probably just ruin their fun completely and have them clean up the mess and do laundry if I went downstairs now. It's a balancing act, this parenting thing.
Let it snow! (repeated three times)

It's snowing right now. Salt Lake City and Ogden to the north got huge amounts from a big Christmas storm, but we only got around three inches. Last night and this morning alone, we've gotten at least four. I do like it when it snows, if it's gotta be winter and cold, we might as well have snow!
I also enjoy watching national weather advisories for our area. They change from hour to hour, including whatever is going on weather-wise to make the prediction seem more feasable. The day before yesterday, I checked and it said "winter weather and locally heavy snow increasing tonight and decreasing until noon ." It'didn't snow at all. Around noon the advisory called for snow in the afternoon and decreasing after midnight.
It actually started snowing at about 4:00pm. The advisory had changed when I checked it at around 8:00 pm to evening heavy snow decreasing after six am. Here's the official word right now,
...Snow Advisory Through Today...
The Snow Advisory continues in effect for the Sanpete and Sevier valleys and southwest and west central Utah through today. Snow will increase and become more widespread this morning and continue through the day today. Snow accumulations of 2-6 inches are expected with heaviest snow amounts expected along I-15 from Cedar City to Scipio.
Those traveling through the area today should be prepared for winter driving conditions
Hah. Like i said, it's snowing right now, and it'll snow until it stops. And I'm glad of that.

This just in from KSL News... Psychic Grant Gudmundson has seen the future of Utah, and it is... a large financial company! (And an end to the drought.) Phew. I'm relieved.
Aliens and global warming? A very interesting speech by the author, film maker, doctor and thinker Michael Crichton outlining what he sees as a serious crisis for science. Extrememly thought provoking, please take the time to check it out... (Via Instapundit)
