We've had a record-breaking snowfall this past weekend in Albuquerque- over 12" at the airport, and closer to 24" at my house!  In my 26 years, I can't EVER remember getting close to this much snow in the city.  Had a good time digging out and playing the past few days...heres some pics.

It's the global warning!
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.

Oh yeah...here's our newest Toyota!  I bought this for my wife Thanksgiving weekend with a blown engine and some terrible looking chrome aftermarket wheels.  I put a brand new Toyota short block in it, freshened the heads, and found some OEM wheels and wrapped them in some BFG's.  Whaddya think?

As nice as the snow looks...I'm just as happy as a clam to live here. I can look out my window and see it on the mountains, never have to shovel a sidewalk here.

Nice Runner.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. "

Snow's cool, wish we had some here!

Don't worry Glen, that hole is supposed to be there- it's over the courtyard/entryway whateveryouwannacallit that leads up to my front door.

It's the water heater that died and flooded my garage that I was worried about.  It's not that much fun to install a new water heater and mop the garage when there's all that snow outside!

Nate:  I got a KILLER deal on the Runner.  We were really fortunate to be able to get the truck and get it
fixed the way we did.  After we sold the Camry, our total out of pocket expense on the truck was less than $2K.

Yeah I live just outside of Albuquerque.  Got 25" at my place.  IMO the entire state of New Mexico was caught with their pants down on this one.  No one seemed to have any clue about how to deal with snow.   :headscratch:
