I'm heading out sailing for my team this weekend.  The water's supposed to be 45 degrees.  I'm excited.

Yesterday and today we got alot of snow too. Yesterday there was strong winds as well. Felt like a real winter, albeit all the snow is about to go away again. This winter the snow hasn't stayed for even a single week. That makes quite a snowless winter over here, which is rather unusual.

Wow, Ripsnort... Do you ever miss the opportunity to show or describe how much money you spent on your property? Admit it, the shot of your hot tub wasn't exactly placed there because how well it illustrated the snow cover.

BTW, mother nature is wrong this time. According to the Earth's tilt in relation to its position in orbit around the sun, it's been spring for a couple days now.

Carry on.

No snow down here, just cold cold COLD rain, and a little bit of slushy rain.  Brrrr

Total snowfall was about 6" at our house. I am currently the only one in my cubicle at work this morning. Everyone else didn't come in. Wimps!

It always feels good to "brave" the not-that-bad road conditions when the rest of the pansies around here are too scared to try . . . until you get hit by some idiot driving stupid.  That's right, Mister Northwesterner, 4x4s don't stop any better on ice and spinning tires aren't more likely to make you move forward if they spin faster.
