Snow last weekend, rain in the middle of the week, now it's sunny and 70.....go figure. Out to the range on the bike...two birds with one stone, so to speak. Put 100 rounds through my carbine, and 25 through the judge....20 miles to the range, and the some back roading...Broke the 200 mile mark today

Forget the living room!

 Well if it was in the proper place like a heated living room you might want to spend more time tweaking on it and making ready for when the snow is gone.......

Snowed on my way to work this morning... Sigh.  I haven't had a lot of incentive to put my bike back together in my unheated garage yet.

 both major highways in and out of the city were closed for most of the morning one due to a really bad car accident and the one from the north was due to white out conditions. South bound highway was closed due to super icy conditions but all were opened after about 1300.......

Crazy weather this week, that's for sure!

Yesterday it was around 45 or so, and sunny. Then the temps dropped to about 35 and we got terrible winds, 30 mph w/ 50 mph gusts.  Lost part of a bartlett pear tree--   right in the drive way.   Then the sleet came, it was sleeting sideways for several minutes.   Hard to believe after all that the sun tried to come out, but it was windy until around midnight.

....close call with the tree and my truck...

No Worries

Last night we had rain and the 50mph wind.  The power went out three times.

April fools day wasn't bad, wasn't great, but it was ok. Saw some bikes out while I was working, and I actually had the heat off in the car...April 2nd was quite another story...20°. 50 mph winds and snow...blew the thermometer off my tree in the back yard! Today, it was 29° this early morning, but by about 10, it was in the 40s....Rode up to the ABATE meeting, now I have about 150 miles on this year...70° or so this afternoon! Tomorrow, back to winter....

Let's hope we don't jinx things now.   :o

Too late!

Yesterday we had 65mph winds and snow that was going sideways!  Strange thing was, it was 55F when it was snowing!  Never seen anything like it!
