LOL! North Carolina has, too. Three inches of snow and they shut the state
down!

I'm from Mass, and when I go down there I can't believe the number of
spin-offs I see! Of course, we're used to it up here!


So when you go 'south', you're heading up into the mountains?

 

Yes, definately serious snow in Mass. You're right, it is amazing to
see people panic at a couple of inches of snow. My fav was the
TransAm in front of me outside of Hagerstownwho couldn't adopt the
concept of driving @30mph or less on snow covered ice during a storm.
Everytime he lost it, went sideways and miraculously straightened out,
up he would go trying to speed.

Lately it hasn't been camping in the mountains of WV, but visiting in
the valley. Martinsburg is surrounded by mountains and gets as much
snow (if not more) than New York, and is hotter in the summers, too.

North Carolina is beautiful, though I've only been through it en route
to FL. I've heard that the Smokey Mountains are awesome.
