    Snow!

    I woke up this morning and there was all this white stuff on the ground outside! You guys up north all need to keep this weather up there. If I want to see snow I'll come up for a visit.

    I agree. Some of it even leaked down here to the hill country of Texas. Frozen rain, sleet, snow and kids out of school.

      I thought it was a pretty fair trade ..... all this 50 & 60 degree weather we'd been having, I figured the least we could do is trade a little of the white stuff.

      If it ain't broke.. don't fix it!!!... but you can always 'hop it up'

        Sorry crocket!
        Weird weather trends in our world!
        Actually we have had extremely warm weather in Vermont, the grass has been green with isolated trees and flowers budding and no snow until the past few days. It was –10 night before last and we now have about 4 inches of new snow, but today it is expected to be in the mid 30’ and have a warming trend.
        The loggers, skiers, snowmobler’s, ice fishing people etc and especially the businesses and tourism that depend on the cold and snow are not doing well.
        For them send it our way!
        For me and after nearly the same last winter I’m getting used to the warmer winter weather with no snow.
        In a few areas of the state they have been tapping the maple trees and producing maple syrup and I have not put my bicycle up yet!
        What has your weather been like?

            Well... the past few weekends I've been out on the deck grilling for dinner. This past Sunday I was in shorts.

                We have it coming in Friday, all through the weekend. I guess I need to chop some wood for My Gaslog fireplace. Bill

                  We had to put up with your heat this past summer. Just paying you back.

                      Finally got 6" of snow the other evening. Spent 2 hours trying to get my snowblower to cooperate. Then the deep-freeze came, down to 8 degrees below zero overnight. Today it's a balmy 20 with more snow expected. That's Wisconsin in Jan. for you.
