SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have SNOW!!!!! It SNOWED!!! It is kind of SNOWING now!!!!! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Though base has been closed for the day so Flyboy isn’t going anywhere. (It is really cute too because all the new guys are calling him asking him about work and stuff. Hehe =P) Coffee/hot cocoa is brewing, and I am going to take some pictures here really soon!

It was really nasty out there yesterday! As in I went outside to pick up Flyboy and I didn’t even have to lift a foot to make it to my car, I just slid all the way there on my big feet, like skies. I tell you though I wasn’t expecting that. Oh, my, and the asphalt was even worse. Leadership had sent everyone home yesterday around 1000, but Flyboy was stuck there because he was to fly today, and well they had to mission plan. So leadership I guess felt bad and took Flyboy home for me. I am glad I didn’t have to drive on that stuff, but on the other hand I was more nervous waiting for him to get here then I would have been driving on the ice!

It never got above or even close to 32 degrees yesterday, so the ice from yesterday and the accumulation from last night, makes it and even yuckier situation today. =/ But to top off the horrible-ness, there is a sweet layer of snow, like sugar sprinkled on angel food cake… mmm angel food cake! Though, the lights are flickering again, which is a little irritating, but we were told there could be a lot of power outages because of the weather. So I better let everyone go for now. I don’t want to blow the power supply on this baby…

Yay Snow! Take care, keep warm, and be safe!!!
