In Tucson it is 75 and the sunshine is stacking up like cordwood in Minnesnowta.

This is a rarity for you guys down there isn't it?
Pretty common up here, just don't hit the Binders.
Best of luck and hope you get some warm weather.
Tim

We get about 2 weeks of really cold, some times freezing rain,sometimes snow and sleet. Not always at the same so when it occurs the state just shuts down!

Bap,


I have always lived in winter states, Nebraska, Iowa, Michigan and I think it is just what you get used to. Sister in Texas and brother in North Carolina who want nothing to do with winter but then I don't blame them.


I plan to retire in 3 years (34 1/2 months actually but whose counting) and leave MI in the winter months. I want nothing more to do with it, I HATE WINTER! But, I make good money so will stay here for a few more years.


Did I mention I hate winter? Yeah, it is awful sometimes but there are enough ok days to keep you here until retirement. I get antsy when it gets below 30 and we have had a lot of that this year already and no let up in sight. It can be quite beautiful when fresh and laying on the pine trees but driving in it and shoveling it is just a pain in the a--.


See you in the morning over a cup of coffee. Night all, Lynne

Good Morning All, HnS, Hope your getting back to normal down there, ice is a real pain. Bap, get your water line thawed out? our weather man up here said we are stuck in this weather pattern for the next month or so, not sure if that affects you down there or not. Lynne I'm with you on the disliking winter. It seems like this yr. is just dragging. -1 this am, no wind that's a plus, expecting some snow tonight. Have a great day all.

Thumbs up Good Morning coffee gang!

Morning All,

Well, it's 8 this AM and it is really sad that that seems warm. Good God, my mind must be frozen!

I am ready for blue skies and green grass. Got a lot of yard work to do this year as I haven't been able to the last 3 years with my neck injury but this year I should be able to take care of those overgrown flower beds and garden.

Also need to figure out where we will be putting the MH home at. Need to do some measurements and grading then put in a cover. Either way, make a plan.

Coffee was good this AM and hope you all have a good cup. See the doctor today r/e my knee. I think I am heading where you are going Terry. Hopefully not but this thing is painful!

Have a fabulous day! Lynne
