The ice was at least a foot thick with nearly a foot of snow laying on top of it. It was an F'ing awesome experience. That is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itstrainingtime Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Although...those around DC metro have averaged about 6" for the season, some in northern VA have had even less. If I was sitting at 6" and Williamsport was nearing 40" like I am, I might be ready to toss as well. They do like to complain, but they've had a lot to complain about the past several years.

Itstrainingtime Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 In life it's a lot easier to be content when things are going well. I mean...at the end of the day, it's only snow. But to snow weenies like us, it's a big deal. The DC area has been royally screwed for the past FEW years. I'm sure our mood would be a little different if we were going through what they are. Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there has been many times through the many years I would watch DC get hammered and me get nothing to an inch. It would drive me so crazy and that is what it is doing to them right now in DC proper near subs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC will never be mistaken for the Swiss Alps, but it's hard to duplicate what's happened the past 2 years specifically. And to think that less than 50 miles north of the metro, Hoffman is over 50" and counting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its funny but there seems to be something most like to watch out of Planes, Trains or Automobiles (not the movie). I find commercial planes more fascinating.

I was in St. Maarten years ago and made it a point to go to Maho Beach to watch the jets coming in. If you're (anyone) not familiar with this phenomena, go to Youtube and type in "Maho Beach jet landing". As crazy as it looks on video, it's something else to experience...

By that point, my wife was calling me many not so repeatable names for subjecting our kids (our daughters were 7 and 8 at the time) to the noise and commotion.

I built WITF's website and was there for about a year and a half in 2010/11. (Great job, great people - support local public media!) Anywho the building is on the flight path into MDT and up on a hill with an all glass facade. Watching Air Force One do touch and gos all day always made it look like we'd have skid marks on the roof. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
