Snow on the East Coast is ick. It's wet and heavy. What you want is powdery light snow that glistens like diamonds strewn in your path as the sun shines down on it. And yes, you want the sun, too. Won't get it on the East Coast. Just sayin' (omg, did I just drop a 'g'?! No!!!!)</I>Manishahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13397829480472038159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156654.post-4677212232847850702008-10-13T12:07:00.000-06:002008-10-13T12:07:00.000-06:00Yup, the weather! It's quite windy, the Santa Ana winds.....and more wildfires in SoCal :(.<BR/><BR/>I saw "fall colors" on one or two trees the other day. The only way i now "enjoy" winters is by taking a trip to the East Coast-though hardly any snow when i am around!musicalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07166797277993509485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156654.post-43538217156640878002008-10-13T09:16:00.000-06:002008-10-13T09:16:00.000-06:00<B>Anita</B><I>, those chappals are an eye-sore. Enjoy your weather - I hope it doesn't get as cold for you as it did last year. We are slated for a very cold winter.</I> :-(<BR/><BR/><B>Cook</B><I>, the first week of October is the last week for color around here. We get mainly golds from the shimmering aspen. Beyond that, not much to look at but no-one really cares around here because what they are really waiting for is ski season to start. Weather like this is good for the slopes. The mountains were already looking peppered with white based on whatever little I could see through the thick clouds and fog. <BR/><BR/>And yes, those chappals are styled on padukas. But they are awful. Simply awful.</I><BR/><BR/><B>Nirmala</B><I>, but there are advantages, too. We go sledding, snow shoeing and ice-skating. We hope to hit the ski slopes more this year. Without this kind of weather, we'd have to do what Dubai does for those indoor ski arenas.</I><BR/><BR/><B>Raaga</B><I>, ah! Bliss! I am also found in the kitchen but for different reasons: it's the warmest area in my home currently. Brrrr!</I><BR/><BR/><B>Laavanya</B><I>, I really do. I hate them. I would throw them away right now if I could. What is worse is that they are completely useless: they are not a pair I can slip my feet into if I need to step out into my yard. Not only is the design terrible, they are also those yukky acupressure chappals. You know the kind? They have poky things sticking up from the inner sole that hurt as you attempt to walk in them.</I><BR/><BR/><B>Pragyan</B><I>, I love compliments! They warm me up from inside because curently that's the only way to stay warm. Brrrr!</I>:-D<I> We woke up to frozen grass but no black ice on our streets, unlike the roadways. It's going to warm up into the 60s after today which is why he won't turn the furnace on. Next weekend, we might actually ride our bikes to Balvihar. So I totally hear you about flip-flop weather!</I><BR/><BR/><B>Shilpa</B><I>, he manages. I was thrilled when his last pair gave way. They were like regular flip-flops but had those acupressure thingees. So again, they were useless for me. But he stapled them together, used superglue and god knows what else to keep them going. After his last trip to India, he first showed me the lovely stacking katoris he brought back for me then he showed me these awful things. The old pair is still there as backup. </I>Manishahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13397829480472038159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156654.post-27428257476430081762008-10-13T08:07:00.000-06:002008-10-13T08:07:00.000-06:00I have never understood how anyone can walk with those chappals :), I can't walk if the chappals don't have a good strap...But they are very very cute.
