Since we moved to Iowa in '97, getting a "White Christmas" has always been a
dicey affair. Regular warm(ish) weather fronts and little snow has pretty
much been the rule, and we often had a "brown Christmas" -- much to the
dismay of my kids.

This year is looking dramatically different. We've already had temperatures
below zero throughout the Midwest, we've already had two significant
snowfalls -- with more predicted for today -- and it's not even technically
"winter" yet...

Snowmobilers, skiers, and kids are ecstatic -- and that ski-plane conversion
kit isn't looking so silly, either!
