>>Hey I've got about 28" of new snow in my backyard (and still coming) and they were saying on TV there were 85 mph winds, 36" of snow and crazy tides on the coast east of here. Are you guys out west going to stop sending this stuff east? It's getting a little old.

Hey, John. With that much snow I could build an igloo which would be lots warmer than my house was this morning...(-27*F. outside, not including wind chill). We didn't get much snow at our house, but they got blizzards south of us. We're keeping the water running in the kitchen sink by wrapping heat tape around the pipes and letting the faucets drip at night. Otherwise they would freeze and the pipes would burst. I just stick to the Herp Room most of January, crank up the heat, and turn the humidifier up full blast.
There's supposed to be some warm weather coming though. I'm looking forward to that. I can't go outside when it's below 20* because it affects my asthma. I haven't been out to check on habitat or cut new wood since about Christmas time. It has gotten up to 10* above at about 1pm. When it hits twenty I'm going out for a walk. Hopefully, that won't be sometime in February...LOL.
Sorry to hear you're getting worse weather than us, but you know what they say, "Better you than us, haha." I'll try not to send anymore, ok? Wah, wah, hahahah.
