We have friends that live on the south coast of Lake Erie about 30 minutes out of Buffalo. They have lived there the whole time I've known them (+40 tears) and they are telling us that there has never been as much snowfall there as there has been this winter season.
I remember reading in some obscure history book that there were Neanderthal wives complaining to their Neanderthal Husbands about to go hunting with their prized new weapons, saying "There has never been such rotten weather since those scientists started experimenting with those confound new Bows & Arrows."
I believe that was about the official time of the start of conspiracy theory 101 or as we know it, "CLIMATE CHANGE."

When the weather permits we go outside dressed appropriately and watch the waves crash on the beach and toast Smores over a bonfire. If its raining we watch the waves crash on the shore from the comfort of a furnace heated glampmobile.

We enjoyed sailing and canoeing and if you do very much of either you can't let rain or cold weather be a detriment or you'd miss out on some of life's great experiences, like canoe camping in AR and staying in Albert Pike State Park in a storm with rain and cold. The experiences get better as the memory fades. Sailboat racing in Feb in the Gulf of Mexico was misrabile at the time but we still remanice about how bad and fun it was.
10 years from now do think you will remember the 10,000 miles you drove or the horrible storm that was exciting and got the heart pumping? I can go into great detail about the evacuation for "Ike" but nothing about the week before.
Steve - your just building a memory, it'll be funny in several years and you will have several new friends - enjoy.

Wayne - one of the guys here has two of them set up side by side. Looks very nice. It's a thought - but not through pondering the notion.
Truth be told - with the Maverick 733 I have - once the fire is going and the smoke doing its thing - I can go inside and monitor the Temps of meat and the inside smoker temp as well.
Hey Jeff - dare ya to come down here and sweat anything - including the small stuff lol.
As for trudging through snow - never did - never lived anywhere with those conditions...
Have already made plans for the break in the weather. Going to do Cornish Hens on the grill Saturday with Don and Sandee.
Hope springs eternal in the RVMdom! The really nice thing is - we love each other and really love Bonita Bounder. We are home sweet home!

Speaking of Don and Sandee, Don have you lost your keyboard?

Hey Tim,
We have been keeping very busy, and I added a new wrinkle by having a crown come loose from one of my molars, dang thing of it is, trying to get my Michigan dental plan to understand that my permanent address is mobile ..... lol ..... Also we have been visiting family and friends and making yearly upkeep repairs, we had the couch restuffed ... oh what a wonderful improvement that was, new arm covers for the recliner, a new wind sensor for the emergency retract on the awning, the old one suffered a direct hit from an acorn breaking off one of the cups, it didn't work so well after that. Anyway Life is good and beautiful on the rainbow.
Cheers !!!!
P.S. its even better with venison in the freezer, oh and new heating rods for A/C operation as well. Once you get over 50 its just patch, patch, patch .... lol .....
