Well, the weather here is anything but cold. We've had some high temps. lately 80+. The forecast calls for cooler temps. within the next couple of days. I'm looking forward to that, and I know the firefighters working out near Palm Springs can use a break from this heat.

thats why i like it right here in E.TN (one of very few reasons) because no extreme weather, it gets hot but not too hot, cold but not too cold and no snow!

my sassy does the dog plow. when there is a fresh snow and she needs "out", it's four foot prints and a dog face furrough down the middle for yards. as she comes back all you see is eyes. cute as it is, i don't want that white poop in my yard this year.

Now buy a big 2 stage snow blower to guarantee that it will not snow
