Hey, all that ice from the disappearing glaciers has got to go SOMEWHERE, hasn't it?

Down here, in my cocktail is about the only place you'll find it!

Gary, for once those of us on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan aren't getting hammered by it. We just thought we should share the fun we usually have with the rest of you. I only wish we could share it with Don and Eddie .........

Tom

Diki,

You really know how to hurt a guy, don't you. Just finished the driveway for the third time. It finally stopped snowing, the sun peeked out for a few minutes, and hopefully, Mother Nature will take care of the remaining snow, which measures just under three feet.

And yes, I wish DonM and the all the other wonderful folks down south could enjoy this as well. My wife no longer says she likes the change of seasons. When you get to our age, 70 to 80 degrees is all the change you want to enjoy. And, when you have a tall Margaretta and sitting beneath the sailboat's Bimini top, 90 ain't all that bad either.

Cheers,

Gary

Better not let Obama read this

Easy there Tom.
We just had a nasty chill blow through central and south Florida. The weather guy said it came directly from Michigan. I actually had to pull my shirt collar up to keep from freezing.
Eddie

I had to wear a jacket to the golf course today. I don't believe the temperature ever go to 60 all day.
Oh well, in a few hours you guys can mix a hot toddy, sit back by the fireplace and watch the Saints kick some Colt rear end! That will warm ya up!
DonM

As a european, I always marvel at the extremes to be found in the Americas especially because here in south Yorkshire,UK the most level snow I have experienced in my 77 years is 14 inches!

so your 3 feet certainly takes some licking.
although I do remember once in south Germany, Frankenwald, retiring one night and the next morning finding that my car was completely hidden under the night's snowfall.
cheers

The only place I'd like 3 feet of snow is while we are on a ski trip for a week..............that's fun. We've been on a couple of week long ski trips where it snowed 2 feet.
For a skier it doesn't get much better than that. Gary I can hear you thinking is this guy out of his mind?? On the other hand when I'm home having to work, it's a different story......

Steve,

C'mon down. I have some great ski trails behind the house where you could get in some cross country skiing. A week earlier they were called deer trails.

Today, before the football game, the car has to be dug out. Gotta' go back to work Monday, and the weatherman is calling for a 40 percent chance of snow again on Tuesday. Diki is probably cracking up reading this, and I'll bet he's playing outdoors in a Tiki Bar tonight.

Just another fun day in Paradise,

Gary

Paradise is a little chilly right now, not as bad as when you came down, but in fairness, the Panhandle ain't Miami!

Nighttime in the 30-40 range, daytimes in the 50-60's. But what do you expect with the Saints in the Superbowl?! Even Satan now has a cross country skiing trail outside his back door...

But I'll trade you 3ft of snow for being wiped out by a hurricane any day! Be glad for what you have...
