No, Seriously...three Tuesdays ago I was working in the yard, wearing shorts and a short sleaved shirt. My neighbors were all walking about, playing with dogs and kids. A reawakening. Spring had arrived. I was going to refinish my deck so I could clean the garage so I could buy a Vette and put it in that garage. 2 weeks of snow and ice...Just got the garage cleaned yesterday. Luckily the seller of "my" car is my dad, so I know it isn't going anywhere. BUT, he's on a cruise until the end of April, so we're looking at mid-May until that big clean space in my garage is filled with a 'Vette. 'Till then I'll keep reading and learning. Great forum! Thanks for the vent!

I really do feel for you guys - the weather has been horrible back east and up north. This is the time I like living in AZ, but I sure will be jealous of all of you between June and Sept when it's well north of 100F here

Hang in there - winter's almost gone

I just fought with 2 feet of snow wed. morning. Kids liked it no school for 2 days except for me putting them to work with shovel. I live at 8500 ft above sea level so snow is to be expected till end of May sometimes. My yard going to look great this summer is the benifit so I dont mind. Nice thing about Colorado is snow today 70-80 temp tomarrow and snow gone. Cant wait till summer tho been a tuff winter.

Best regards
