DOES IT SNOW IN NORTHWEST WASHINGTON??????

![IMG_0026.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmf9FU4oZQh59eiHopfb1RatcR3JbY6EYDoioQD5vvSoyS/IMG_0026.jpg)

Guys don't panic, this was 2 years ago!!!
Did I tell you I really like snow, but that year was ridiculous! I have lived in the high country of Colorado where it IS suppose to do this, but in Western Washington it rains. We have friends in Eastern Washington and they have a rotary snow plow, it is so much fun to bury the wife's car in a blanket of snow......... @silvertop didn't do that.........

See this second photo, this was taken when it just STARTED, it got so deep I had to tunnel to the wood pile. Now you know living over on what they call the dark side ( Western Washington ) no one knows how to handle this. The garbage truck wont come up our street for three weeks, at least the garbage is frozen. We have a tank of a four wheel drive car, with aggressive studded snow tires and barely made it up the road. They are busy plowing the town, we might get plowed maybe in a week......

To make the best of it we got his and hers snowshoes, they are so much fun if you get them sized just right you walk on top of the snow!

Then we have these...........The Big Cats.......the neighbors have video of the " family " A mom and two cubs about a year old, you know Dad isn't far behind (:
Cougars/MountainLions make a very eerie cry, watch a youTube and listen. They sound like a
woman screaming; we have 5 acres in the woods and late at night we have heard this.......... Its really unnerving. its also kind of spooky knowing that they are in YOUR woods!

We have hiked on our trails and done a loop and returned on the same trail in the snow to find NEW prints 30 minutes later. One day we were actually walking on the trail on cat prints we didn't know how fresh, but they were fresh. We abandoned this hike...... I don't want to be a kitty snack.

So this is wintertime in the Northwest, I hope you enjoyed this! @ silvertop

howdy sir silvertop! I actually loved it when it snowed so much that we'd get snowed in for a few days out in Kansas when we had blizzards but if you have to be out driving in it everyday it's a bear! 
Are you guys way out in the country or the woods?

Snow is great, but sometimes it can be too much especially for the Northwest on the 'dark' side.
