Hey, Fred.

Blast this over the stereo until the thaw. Maybe your blues will slide on down the road? :wink:

Well yea. it snowed today. I'm sick of it already. 2nd snow this year. I really dont mind the snow,it's the bone chilling temps that I dont like. if it could snow when it's a sticky 95° day I think that would be cool! :D

Nope! That's why we live here. :lol: Though I'll admit we did get a taste of it this weekend. We were on the edge of disaster with freezing rain this morning until it crept above freezing and melted before we got much accumulation. I'll take our rare few inches of snow anytime over freezing rain. Lots of big pines around here that don't handle the ice load well at all, and with that come the power outages. :x

Actually we have been fortunate this winter, so far we have had about 6” total snow fall which is about 12” below normal. Last year was slightly more at this time but then we had a storm that dumped a bunch all at once. Winters here in Wisconsin have gradually become milder over that last 25 years or so, that’s fine with me. Once and a while we receive “Lake Effect” snow, I live less that 10 miles from Lake Michigan so it comes from the North East.
All of my good vehicles are in storage until spring, and the Comet is comfortably warm in my shop, and the everyday SUV has to survive the winter weather.

I'm in MIchigan and we have had no snow at all this year. Crazy, we usually would have had a lot by now.

Was suppose to leave Florida today and head home. Called a buddy this morning to check on the weather in Pa, over 8 inches of snow and still coming down. Decided to leave tomorrow instead. Hopefully they have the roads cleaned up by then. Glad I bought new tires before I left.
