No Way! Snow! I think we hit 70 here on Long Island today. My aunt from Texas did say this was the worst winter she dealt with. But maybe we just got lucky here because it was just a couple a weeks ago when I was plowing my *** off.

Global warming?! I heard the earth got knocked off its axis because of the earthquake in Chile so our days are going to be shorter and that will make it colder. I guess its Hot yesterday and Chilly today now.....???

We got that same snow storm in Albuquerque. Woke up to 3-4in here too. By noon it was pretty much gone. Turned out to be a nice, crisp spring day. Took the oil burner for her weekend stretch after lunch.

It was painful just going out to feed my horses this morning. It was 16 degrees here I think and 40-50 mph winds when I went out to feed. It really sucks. I'm not riding again till it really warms up.

This is the worst winter we've had since moving here 9 years ago. It feels like back in the late 70 all over again. Remember that anyone? Some bad winters back then. The government was telling us all we were headed for an ice age too. Now they are hoping noone remembers that lie so they can get our money off this global warming crap. Don't ya just love it?

i went most of jan and feb with only a few short rides on the warmer days...this is the first time in my life i've ever really backed off riding because of the weather we had mud real bad too...i finally sent two of my horses to my mom's house when we couldn't handle the knee-deep mud anymore...

it was 75* and sunny today...got my vegetable garden seed trays planted and then we hit the beach! truck loves this weather as much as i do!
