Come to Wisconsin in January. We got beer and cheese to go with that snow. I do believe it was our dear Angela that first found and posted this song here.......prolly due to Eric's Wisconsin heritage. I have and the beer and cheese was great but it was a lot colder than 30F, more like - 20F. My brother lives in Min. and went up to see him. |

Over here, some fireworks are illegal but most of them can be bought in specialty stores. Quite expensive though. I bought some 2 years ago with New Year. The kids just loved it. Most states here they are outlawed but fireworks are on a controlled. You have to be a tech in fireworks to shoot them off but I see I think 2 this years went bad even then. One was in southern Cal. |

My dog was basket case for a day after and I mean REALLY. Grace hasn't either, but from what I've read, She's adapted for snow... The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

Come to Wisconsin in January. Born in Milwaukee, but moved to California at age 3. Been back a few times at Christmas and in January for weddings and anniversaries. Beer, brats, cheese, and good company are a very good antidote for cold and snow. Donald Infernal Optimist / Submariner, retired |

My dog was basket case for a day after and I mean REALLY. Yes. Happy wasn't afraid of the snow but you could see at her reaction she thought it to be something weird. It's beautiful to see a black cat in contrast with the white snow! rOZZ Music Pictures |

My dog was basket case for a day after and I mean REALLY. Grace being a Maine Coon is well adapted for snow, fur on Her pads and thick flowing fur from nose to tip of the tail, yet She has never seem snow and I haven't seen any since 2008-2009...

My dog was basket case for a day after and I mean REALLY. Maine Coons, although they are well adapted to being house kitties, have their DNA adapted from the feral cats of the Norweigan. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Grace is about 3 years old now, 15lbs might be Her limit, I hope, as She is quite hefty, so much so, that She hurts My elbow joint in My right arm from time to time.

I can say not all of my 6 dogs go bananas, but nearly 50%. I have terrified dogs scattered around the house on a particularly noisy fireworks session ... It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues |

Someone had some fireworks outside the park and the City of Barstow 12 miles away didn't make a lot of noise, Grace was ok, but then there were no high pitched noise makers like in the past... The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

My dog was so shell shocked you almost needed a putty knife to get it out of the closet. I think next year I'll take him someplace else for the evening. He is 13 now and his ticker might give out.
