As for scary movies - yeah, my 4 year old finds everything scary, so it's tough to find moves to watch. He even found White Christmas scary. Pity, as I can't watch many of my favorite movies before he goes to bed.
Wait a minute...wait a minute.....he was afraid of the White Christmas movie with Bing Crosby? I don't remember anything being scary.

Luckily I got an inch of snow here in Morris! Amazing that they got the prediction almost right (South getting creamed, north a few inches at most)!

I'll be driving my 996 to my sister's in Westchester tomorrow, salt and all. She does have a garage with a drain...Optimum No Rinse perhaps!?

Snow stopped. Final tally: 19 inches on the front. 22 inches on the back. 17 inches on the 911.

3 hours after the last flake, the roads are clear, driveway and sidewalks are done, neighbors helped eachother shovel where needed. This neck of the woods is really great.

The battlefield scene early in the movie with bombs falling scared him. He talked about it for 10 days afterwards.

Ahhhh, I remember and I see your point. Happily, I found Dean Jagger to be kindly, calming, wise, and benevolent in his role. Great performance. And of course Danny Kaye and Bing Crosby were also fine actors who turned in memorable performances.

The snow depth is probably best indicated by the the front wheel of the car.
Looks beautiful though.....

Actually, if it doesn't snow in Hawaii then we are in trouble. One of my ambitions in life is to ski the volcano Mauna Kea in Hawaii (13,796 ft)!

Back in the 80's a guy was hunting and went snow blind up there. I'm not sure of arrangements for sking up there.
