Trace Amounts

Interesting results from the poll to decide whether or not we need polls at The Adventures of Yukon Sully. As it turns out, I don't care what everyone else wants and am going to do what I feel like regardless. So we have a new question posted on the left looking for predictions on this Saturday's Alabama-LSU football game.

In other news, this past week was supposed to bring us our first winter storm of the season up in the mountains, but even at over 10,000 feet atop Mount Rose there appears to be little more than a dusting of snow. This Spring it seemed like Winter would never end, with storm after storm rolling through the region and day after day of cold, gray, wet weather. Now in mid-November it seems that it is Summer that will never end, as the weather today was sunny and comfortably in the 60's. Mount Rose Ski Resort had originally hoped to open this weekend and the other resorts were planning to come online next week. If the weather stays warm, I'm not sure how they're even going to manufacture snow. I shouldn't be so impatient--I know that there will come a time in the not-to-distant future that I'll wish for winter to be over. But for now, I just can't stop jonesing for the season's first ride.
