This year has sucked wind so far as far as snow making goes. Many of you know that I make my own snow at my home here in Rhode Island from my obsessive post from last year. It is pretty much my only form of Christmas decoration. From the time I was a teenager I used to make my own snow, with my own home built and Costantino designed snowmaker every year for Christmas. You know, white Christmas, all that jazz. Well the damn tropical weather pattern we're in ain't exactly a snowmaker's dream (or a skiiers for that matter). Enough is enough already! We have all enjoyed the 10th Indian summer of the season, but it is time for winter to settle on in and and take hold now! Here is a little video of my snowmaking adventures from last year.
I haven't even had a night where firing up the snowmaker has been an option. I usually get some days in late November and early December when temps are cold enough - about 25 degrees or under is optimal. I am ready and waiting. Bring it on mother nature! I do remember one year when I was a kid when there was no snowmaking weather possible until Christmas Eve. I stayed up all night long, sleeping only in 1 hours shifts, in order to spray enough snow on the front yard of our home in West Warwick. I was tired as hell the next day, but I beat mother nature, and we had our white Christmas. So listen Mom Nature, you unagreeable wench, I am willing to do whatever it takes to make sure I have a white Christmas, so you might as well give in and lower the temps right now. I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, and I won't be denied!
Snow Crazed!
