Snow Day!

And other stuff

Re: Snow Day!

thanks for posting the pics Deana. I wondered what little Elvis would think about all that snow :)

Re: Snow Day!

Betsy, I don't know if you ever watch, but one night on Conan OBrien (Tonight Show), he made a spoof of LA for going nutty when there's going to be a little bit of rain. Well, the past few days has reminded me of that here. Every news station has had people all over Arkansas reporting on every ball of sleet and flake of snow. It's crazy! But so funny. Made me think of you guys up in Chicago where snow is just another day! :)
