Yes I imagine that snow gets old after awhile. Took this Saturday in Cearwater Florida where it was 78 degrees. Come on down and give that Corvette a workout.

Same thing here in Wisconsin. Normally I can get the car out on April 5th, does not look like it will be good driving weather just yet.

My heart goes out to you.

Just finished cutting my lawn for the second time this spring. Today is 78 degrees, clear blue skies with a 10 mph SE wind. Thinking about wade fishing tomorrow in the nearby bayou, but the water may still be in the 60's..........
Come on down to Louisiana, whats a lil flood every now & then?

Just set the record for snow in March in Cleveland. It really gets old after the first 5-6 blizzards.

We got 18 inches on Good Friday. Much has melted. Now we are supposed to get 4-8 more inches of snow on Thursday here in S.E. Wisconsin.

Well this year we set new records all around. The last few years we had hardly enough to go snowmobiling. This year I had 6 weeks with so much I couldn't get them out of my driveway.
I have part-time residents emailing me asking "when can I get into my driveway?" Well with 6' banks and 4' in their drives I tell them to "Call me in May."
Just got good news, more snow due Thursday.

Those who have it don't want it, and those who don't have it, drive for hours and pay big bucks to play in it. Guess which one I am! Hang in there brotha . . . spring is here and is coming your way!
