   I KNEW IT. Nobody would listen to ME! No! >:( ::) ;D  Seriously though, we are looking at another round of snow  (and freezing drizzle, this time) and temps down in the teens in a day or so and temps down around 4 at night, w/ wind chills in the area of -20! If Spring don't (at least) poke it's nose out now and then (til the real thing shows up) doesn't come soon, I'm liable to have to look into
relocating, at least temporarily. :D Just kidding. But, all these temps down lower than we are used to getting AND the freezing stuff sure are bringing ME down. I got things to do, places to go AND bings to ride! ;)

           Maybe if we all chanted, "Come On Spring, We Want Spring!" maybe it would be understood and we'd get Spring! :D No? ??? Was worth a shot! ;)

Yeah it doesnt work that way. I am just hoping we do not have a summer like last year. We didnt hardly crack the 70s till almost july and I dont think we ever hit anything about 80 - 85.
