You make me SICK!  ;)

There should be laws against posting such photos on here when you know there are snow lovers who aren't getting any! ( Snow that is    :lol:  :lol: )

Those pictures are actually too snowy to be posted in 11 states and the District of Columbia.

You will need to submit additional photos to support your claim.

I've always wanted a home on top of high ground like that.  I could set at a window all day just watching the clouds, storms, or just to look over the land.  Everybody I tell that to seems to think I'm nuts because of the wind and the resulting extra cost to heat in the winter.  But I'm still holding to the dream and have a few places locally in mind that would be almost perfect.   ;)

I'm the same way.

When I'm looking at property, I always look for suitable places to mount my weather station.  ;)

Yeah no snow here in Mid-west Virginia as well.  I am not sure I will ever get a chance to test my Rain Collector Heater under Ice or Snow conditions.   :-(

The views are awsome. As for the -30 temps. You can keep them. As for snow. Had 4" a couple of days ago. Yesterdays rain and 50 degree temps & it's all gone. Maybe we'll see some more this coming week.



Thanks,

Sam,
Sounds like your wanting to start another "Cold" War not being able to test your heater. Remember, it's deterence just having it.


Offroad,
Definitely beautiful property you have and the views would make me never work...oh wait, I don't.

I saw this today and thought it was a cool pic.  It's probably been 'doctored' but it still looks neat:

I got that picture last year from a radio group I am on.. Notice the tower on the right background??
I wonder how well it survived " The Massive Rotating Column Of Wind "   ;) ;)
