I don't like the salt & I learned to be real careful (not once, not twice, but three times) when driving in the snow (all three times I slid a vehicle on the ice and almost hit something (six years ago), or straddled two lanes of traffic (three years ago), & had axle hop while trying to stop [on black ice (never seen it) ] at a stop light while going the speed limit (three weeks ago) while taking my grandma & aunt back home to Lafayette.

 

I find it amusing to listen to the people that like winter, complain about the ice. Wouldn't have the damn ice if it wasn't cold!!LOL

 

Exactly ! That was one of the many reasons why my late dad left the Kentucky/Ohio [Cincinnati] Area.

 

I've been trying to talk the wife into getting a place down in southern Missouri, down by Branson on the lake, for us to retire to. The weather is much milder in the winter, and I love that area down there. She's dead set against it for the time being, but I'm still working on her!

 

Good luck with that...

 

Yeah, we'll see. If the kids end up around here, we'll stay here. But, if they end up leaving, I'll have much better luck.

 

It is starting to snow right now in Fort Wayne.

 

Well, that officially sucks. Sorry, Joe!

 

Thanks, Pat. Thankfully it is a light dusting for now.

 

Don't have any in the forecast here. Most of what we got a while back has melted away. Got the truck washed Friday, maybe it'll stay clean for a whole week.

 

Good evening Indiana, hope the weekend was a good one!

 

Good day , -25*F right now, stay warm gang.....

 

Good morning. It is 18 degrees in Fort Wayne. I'm dreading going back out there in eight hours to get my mom from work.

 

Good morning Indiana! 18 degrees? That's balmy, Joe! It's 3 here. 3. That's ridiculous.

 

Good morning , -25*F again, throw another log on the fire & have a good day ....
