Snowing like a $%^&*

It was 74 degrees yesterday and right now we have 3 inches fresh snow and still coming down. This global warming is getting old.

Star. 76 here today. Skeeters and gnats started showing up. Stupid love bugs even showed up too.
Saw a big cottonmouth down by the pond, and a little copperhead; water is still pretty high after the rains this winter. Guess I better start wearing my snake boots again. Might see some canebrakes in the next couple of days. Saw a bass jump. Maybe some good fishing this year.

It's kind of funny, this has been a pretty mild winter for us, and the rest of the nation has been getting hit with the nasty whether.

pretty mild winter here in NW Illinois too. I'll take it. Nearly 70 yesterday, dropped about 40 degrees overnight with snow expected later today. Have a buddy visiting from Costa Rica, it's 95 and sunny there.

Well we are back into the dirt work here, so you can keep the snow.

We already had enough this year.

Several of the local ski areas had over 300" totals this winter.

Hey Dave, on an aside, thanks again and glad I followed all of your advice trying to make my IDI decision, I've since felt like a kid with a cool new toy. By a longshot, the best truck I've ever bought...for real. Trying to figure out how to put stacks on it and still have clients take me seriously.

LOL I went to amarillo yesterday and there were cars and pickups in the ditch and mediun all the was, wind was causing a white out in several places. the interstate was closed 20 miles west of here so it must have been a lot worse west of here. Today was beautiful, but it is supposed to get sh$%%^ again tomorrow for the rest of the week.

This is supposed to be the South

I started to take my turbo off to realign the pipe coming from the Y on Friday. Not there is 14" of snow covering my truck. It came down non stop Sat and Sun. I'm thinking further south might be in order. Hasta la vista
