February BS Thread

Welcome visitors to the monthly Mississippi Chapter BS Thread... where we mostly discuss the vagaries of our weather.
If you are a MS Ford truck (any year, vintage) owner, please say hello & especially if you are interested in having the coveted chapter membership added to your FTE status.
If you're in a neighboring state/region or just like us, please feel free to join in & post.

We love projects. We love pictures of projects. If you know of a automotive event close by that may have slipped our notice, please tell us about it.
If you're out & about in the state, say where & when & we can do IRL for a cup of coffee or cool beverage. If you need advice/info/helping hand, speak up & we'll give it a shot.


Hi guys. Its been Ark Building Time recently. Actually can see the sun the morning.

Predicted temp for today will be a seemingly BALMY 50* which I will hardily embrace.

It means the tips of my fingers will not totally numb if they have to function outside sans gloves for the first time in many days.

I make no secret that Feb is my least favorite month & now Jan will be my second . Good riddance. At least Feb is short & now its down to 25 days since I'm late posting.

Carry on. Be safe. Treasure all who you love & surround yourself with.

Good morning Dave, and all the Mississippi crew. Yep, it sure has rained a lot. But that's sooooo much more tolerable than drought conditions.

I hope everyone has a wondermous weekend!

Good things today as far as things go...

Didn't pass out on tread mill & I don't seem to glow in the dark.

At 5:30, could still see hand, count fingers & they had feeling.

Count your blessing where you trip over them.

Well the folks over in NE Jxn are gonna' have to get a jump on parking U-Hauls in their driveways.

Usually it's March before it is Pearl flood season.

I've given up on how many "hundred year floods" there have been in my lifetime.

Sooooo...

Tomorrow will be the coolest day (72*) for the next week.

In February.

Cause nowayinhell we're going to get through to real spring without killing everything green that's bustin' out all over.

I predict at least 3-4 inches of snow somewhere in MS before end of March.

Always happy to have somebody drop in.

Things have had me so discombobulated & too sour to even bitch about it myself...
