    Snow day for me today. Schools are all closed. Were getting hammered pretty good in Hamilton. Very windy making visibility poor.
    I actually considered getting the car last week when it was 60 degrees and Sunny out. I know better in this climate at this time of year though. :rolleyes:

    I saw on the news that the upper midwest was suposed to get up to 18 inches in some places. Beautiful sunshine here. I plan on going for a ride on the mc in a little bit. Stay warm. :tiphat:

    Yuck. I'm glad I don't have to deal with that. But I was a little chilly sitting outside in the lawn chair at the drive in movie last night. I think it got down to 60 degrees while we were there, Brrrrrrr.

    Heres the back yard. Even my Lab didnt want to go out. She ran right back in. No way could I get my 2 Bulldogs to go out for a pic. They looked at me like I was insane. LOL.

    I know what you mean. I took my car out of the garage last Friday for the first time since November when it was warm. Something told me to put it back Sunday night. It has snowed here in New Jersey and now the streets are all salted up. So nowI am going to have to wait for a good rain to clean it all off before she sees the pavement again.

    The only thing I have been getting out of the garage is my snow blower. I think I put more miles on it then my Escort this Winter! :)

    What ever happened to the long weekend in May, we never use to get our cars out till then. Still too much salt & sand on the roads for my liking.

    We got hit the other day too. It's still an ice rink all the way to the pole barn. I heard Detroit didn't get anything. I had an inch and a half of ice on my Focus. Warmer next week.

    Yep, be a bit before the roads get cleaned up now.
    My kids were in the pool by May 24 last year. Hopefully this Spring is the same.
