Looks beautiful.

I get ya, man. If that were here, I'd have to go plowing. I'm ready for the warmer temps to stick around. We went from hot and very, very dry last year, and now I have a landscaping to do once the ground dries out--it started raining not long after I had 6 pallets of retaining wall block and pavers delivered in December, and hasn't dried since.

That's a nice looking 59/60 Chebby----must be that moisture free climate on the Left Coast?

Heard just south of Minneapolis/St Paul they got like 15 inches of snow in just one day??!?! Good Gravy glad I'm in Ohio---for now anyway!

No kidding. We don't see classic cars just parked on the street like that around here. They're either restored and garaged, or nonexistent due to winter road salt and summer heat and humidity. When steel prices were really high a few years ago, a lot of junkyards cashed in and cleaned out their lots of older stock.

What month is it?

It's May, of course. It May snow or it May not. For our Canadian friends it's the only month on the calendar. No need to confuse things by having 12.

At a meeting in February I heard our state climatologist predict it was going to be a long cold spring due to heavy snowpack across most of Canada that would continue to feed us cold air.

Score one for the climatologist.
