Wishing all of you a wonderful new year filled with exciting new tools, great inspirations for new projects, beautiful wood, and good health to enjoy all those things.

Johanna - in sunny New Mexico where we wish you folks up north would send us some snow!

Happy New Year.

With regard to the snow be careful what you wish for. Erie, PA has received over 72" since Christmas and it is still coming down.

That photo is so funny!

We would be happy to have snow in any amount! The deepest snow we have ever had was in 2006 - a bit over 2 feet.

Snow is really important in New Mexico - because it melts slowly it seeps into the aquifers instead of running off on the surface. That's really important since the annual rainfall is about 8 inches. The other reason snow is really important is that we need the income from the ski areas. New Mexico has excellent skiing most years - fluffy powder and much cheaper than Colorado.
