No Snow

Hi Everybody,


It's me, Koobuss. I'm back after a brief interruption in service, as they say. Well we won't go into that.

Anyway, Grandpaw and I were thinking.

Here it is, the first week in February, around the half-way point of winter (the groundhog even came and went), and we don't have any snow on the ground here in Mountain Top, PA.  We are located at 41.144 degrees North latitude, 75.87 degrees W longitude, approximately 2000 feet above sea level, and we have no snow in the middle of winter.  And "Auntie Janet" who lives a lot further south of me and near sea level in Manassas, VA, outside of Washington, D. C. has tons of snow!  Some of that is mine.  And I want it!

This afternoon my mom went out to take some pictures of our snowless February.  She made a Smilebox so everybody could see what I mean.  The first five photos were taken at the Ice Lakes about five miles from here, and the rest were taken at Fairview Township Memorial Park, about a mile up the road.  Back in the early 1960s, when my mom was a kid, she used to hang out there with her friends.  It was the local gathering place for teenagers and anybody else who wanted to have some fun on a summer evening.

Ah... summer...

What's that last photo? "No Dogs Allowed in the Park"? Sheesh... Between that and my internet problems this week, it seems that everybody's out to get me. I think I'll go to bed. Good Night.

Love and Lots of Koobuss Kisses,

Koobie
