AAARRRRGGGggghhhhh!!! Why is it that when it was warm out and THE CLOUDMONT was closed I had all those days off, now that they are open I'm flying every freaking day, this sucks. Right now I'm scheduled to fly Friday, not sure if I'm going to New Orleans or Mrytle Beach.... I just want to summit the 'mont. Why must it be so hard??? :cry:

I think they got 6 inches of wet natural snow on Sunday night, the 6-10 for last night was probably manmade. They are such a small area that they can lay down alot of snow in a short period of time. One advantage for being small I guess.

I'm there. I am going to try my best to get out of Pell City around 3:30pm and head up to Mentone. There is a place up there called Dessie's to eat some dinner. Plus my wife wants fried pickles and they have some good ones (I guess- I hate pickles). Anyone else in on the chaos????
