Quit being coy Bruce, you guys get snow down there

Last year after the auctions we stopped at the In-N-Out Burger in Scottsdale. The sky was amazing, very dark, and windy. It ended up snowing, of course it melted as soon as it hit the ground. There were a couple of people who got up without finishing there meals, got on their cell phones to tell someone and stood outside in utter surprise that it was snowing. Pretty cool.

About ten years ago I picked up a car in New Mexico. We towed it behind the truck on a dolly. There was alot of snow in NM. When we got to a friends house in Scottsdale, after about an hour a "log" of snow fell out from the rear valence. My buddy exclaimed that was the first time he had ever seen snow on his street.

It was just an attempt at a little humor poking fun of that newspaper. It's hard to say much without offending someone.

Nice photo. I watched a similar sight last night while flying over Southern Nevada and California. Hard to beat a sunset like that.

Steve, while these guys are cruising Pavillions on Saturday, we can sculpt a first gen Camaro out of snow in your front yard. Maybe Mike (M22Mike) can help block it to perfection.

We have a western exposure over the mill pond and enjoy our sunsets regularly as well. Back in '91 when Mount Pinatubo blew, we had a summer of sunsets like that. It was spectacular. Unlike Arizona, we have 5-6" of snow on the ground, 26 degrees F., and the cars tucked away until April. At least 100+ degree weather is a rarity around here in the summer. 120 or 20 below, take your pick.

Okay...I'm busted. You are right. Here is a shot directly in front of Westworld on that Sunday...look up in the foothills...that is snow coming down!



On the way home that moning from BJ. In this pic...look at the hills...they are covered in snow. The hills are maybe 5 miles north of the 101 off of Tatum



This from a storm last year




And here a "typical" AZ sunset during the HOT summer months!




You guys shot some killer pics!
