Swimming, outdoors, in March. That's just not right......

Congrats, KT, I know you've been looking for "greener pastures" for quite some time now. Glad you found 'em, even if your kids have to get wet in the dead of winter...

Man,Im lovin it here,or should I say hea?Everywhere I go the speed limit is 70mph,I guess that is because Texas is so cotton pickin big if you didnt go 70mph you would never get to your destination!And,yeah the kids are lovin it.They are all set to go swimming again this weekend.Funny thing is,my son in law has lived here all his life and he says there is no way he is jumping into a pool until it gets (warm)?Heck,it was almost 70deg last weekend and is 80 deg right now!And friendly!Man,everybody here smiles and says good morning or good afternoon.And you are right Greywolf,I am already looking for a BBQ grill!

Hey KT, where in Texas are you at? Here in the Panhandle it's in the 30's with 30-40 mile per hour north winds. Raining now, but supposed to change over to snow shortly. We have had some nice temps. in the 70s and 80s over the last couple of weeks, but as soon as it warms up and I get used to the nice weather we get another cold streak. Oh well, I guess one last cold spell won't be so bad.

Yeah KT, it has been nice down your way. It warmed up quite nice already here...it's in the fifties and seventies predicted for the weekend. But oh how the wind blows everyday up here...until May or June.

Yup,just about everything is bigger.The city of San Antonio makes Detroit look small,the distance between cities is real big,the U.S. flag at our dealership is huge,and the women,well they arent big,but there sure are alot of cute ones!My son and I went to pick up a new couch,and on the way we were checking out the scenery,but he kept missing the good looking women.he asked,how can you spot them dad?I said Radar,he said,yeah right.I said what you dont believe me?He said no.I said,ok fine just wait,see that traffic light up ahead?He said yeah.I said,as soon as we stop for the light look to your right,you will see a good looking woman come out of a store.He looked at me like I was brain dead.Well,as luck would have it,I stopped for the light,and we both looked to the right and a beautiful redhead came walking out of a store,not 20 feet away.He looked at me with a puzzled look on his face.I smiled and said,I told you,I have great radar.He said yeah you do!But how did you know that from two blocks away?Well,the truth is I was just lucky,but I wasnt going to tell him that.I just smiled.
