I am planning a snowmobile trip to Minnesota today!
I do have some snow shovels for sale if anyone needs some up there... Okay... I am just given you guys some crap... Hopefully you'll dig out soon...

Close call. We got 1/2" of snow at my house but a scant 15-20 miles east they got 12".
I am still upset about the weather this spring but am really happy about the near miss

It is really unbelievable... but then again, the whole of the U.S. needs the ground water replenished after last year's drought. Unfortunately, we ride motorcycles and replenishing the water isn't top on our list!!!!

The more I live in Indiana (with the crappy weather and the winters that won't end), the more I think about moving to Arizona or New Mexico. I'm about to send an email to a mining company with mines in AZ. I'm ok with no snow and very little rain. Even better with "cold weather" in the 40s.

We just put all the plows and spreaders back on at work on the trucks today. Left the wings off. We are expecting 2 to 4in accumulation by morning.

I rode (the motorcycle) yesterday when it was in the mid 90's here and worked-up a sweat... but did not complain! Tonight's temps were good with a low to mid 80's with some cloud cover -- which made it feel much cooler than it actually was. Again... I didn't complain.

I suspect that copious amounts of Makers Mark limits your complaining
