The Wyoming "Merry December" Thread

Good Morning Everyone!! Happy Thursdy!! And Happy Dec 1st!!
I left 15 min. early today, it's only approx 4 miles to work, and danged if me and a bunch of poor souls didnt get stuck behind a couple of terrified idiots doing MAYBE 6 mph!! And that was the fast part! We only got a light snow, about 3", the roads were pretty good...still snowing as we speak.

Good morning Wyoming, happy December!! Lanny, some people should just stay off the roads when it snows, they only make it worse....

Good Morning Everyone! Happy Friday!! You are right Pat..somehow, the word got out about this nice little valley we live in, and the population has just exploded..this area, (the highway, county roads, etc.), was not planned out for the increase of traffic we now have, not to mention the mentality of the people behind the wheel, (or any other time, for that matter)!LOL! We are still allowed to carry sidearms anywhere here, so it's just a matter of time before someone gets their head air-conditioned!!

That was always nice, not needing a permit. I have a concealed carry permit, so I can keep my gun in the truck when we travel. I'm hoping the snow coming tomorrow either misses us, or stays as rain, it's supposed to start out that way and change to snow. Nothing like a nice coating of ice for the roads before the snow....

Good morning Wyoming, hope the weekend went well! Didn't get my wish of the snow missing us. Got about 4-5 inches of wet, heavy stuff Saturday.

We're only going to get into the twenties today. I have to remember to plug the truck in tonight, if I get it back, supposed to get to zero or less again.

We are supposed to hit 22 today, drop to 4, then a high of 29, sunny and clear tomorrow..yippie! I might even get to change the oil in the mini-truck....you un-snap the pass seat, and the top and left side of the engine, radiator refill resivour, oil filter and oil cap are right there.

ps- I finally got all the gnats vacuumed out of there!

Well, so much for getting the truck back dealer called and said they want to keep it overnight, still trying to figure it out. At least they're paying for the rental now.
