Too bad you weren't here last night, we got 10 to 12 inches in 24 hours. Shoveling snow really sucks.

KEWL! Glad the package made it, you're quite welcome!
We have snow on the ground right now, maybe 3 inches or so and it's still falling and very pretty. I highly recommend getting up before sunrise and going for a walk while the snow falls before traffic gets moving, it's VERY peaceful.
Gotta be careful wanting 3-6 feet of snow around here, you can lose children attempting to make snow angels in thatThere's nothing quite like trying to walk in snow when you're sinking in to your hip every time you take a step :11:
Here's a link to Ohio's DOT web cams. It takes a couple tries to get the hang of using the site but it's fun
A conch invading Ohio isn't all that odd but a conch invading Ohio in DECEMBER is downright insane
BTW, Steve likes it when women walk up and say "Hey little boy..."
Ber :lilbunny:
Sorry had to move my forecaster Mrs. Ber (I love this web cam) the boys said Sweeeet

Columbus traffic is nothing compared to Miami. If the thought of heading up I-95 to the Sawgrass mall doesn't phase you (other than the travel time), you're golden. The drivers in Columbus know where they are going and they will get there. Drivers in Miami (some, and certainly nobody who would be reading this
) behave like schizophrenic cats on speed.

My brother worked for the U of Miami for several years, and last year I had a dive buddy living in Coconut Grove (he's back in Ohio now).

COSI Columbus | Hands-on Science Center
It looks like COSI will be open. Probably good for a few hours.
There's also a Dave & Busters if you want the kids to play video games for awhile.
I need to run but I'll try to think of something...

Here's a couple more. I'm trying to think of kid things.
Magic Mountain has two locations and is basically an arcade.
Magic Mountain Fun Centers - Come Play!
You could visit the OSU campus. Not a whole lot to do, but it is huge and has some neat buildings.
Welcome to Ohio State - www.osu.edu
There's the Newport aquarium, but you're looking at a 2+ hour drive (it's in Kentucky). There's an indoor water park about 2 hours the other direction (Sandusky?). Interested in ghosts? How about a hike in the hills of south east Ohio?
Hmm, I'm having trouble thinking of places that aren't bars or wineries...
