Re: Our mornin Coffee and Weather
We ended up today with about 8" and dodged most of the ice so far. When I complain about the weather here I think about my brother who lives in Garrett Co. Md. He battles with snow up there and no where around here is even in the ball park. Garrett Co. is a whole other world compared to just it's next county east down off the mountains that are around Grantsville and Oakland. The winter of 2009-2010 they set a new record for snow fall for the season at 262 inches. In 1985 the temperature got down to -36 with a -120 wind chill. I have been to his place the third week in June and the leaves are not all the way out yet. I have heard the growing season in Garrett Co. is the same length as Anchorage, Alaska. I couldn't live up there. So when things get rough here I think about what they are having to deal with up there in his county.

38 and sunny! Maybe 47 later. Going to fire up the wood splitter and bust up some more rounds. Did not quite prep enough to make it through the winter/spring.

20F today feels like summer. I was going to clean my driveway this morning with snowblower but the wind has done it already. Right down to the gravel. Tea time in the Henry mug and then read some online reloading manuals.

Re: Our mornin Coffee and Weather
Broken records of rainfall here has everyone I talk to depressed. 1 day some sun next 6...rain. seems like the pattern anymore. Trying to have some work done on weekends by a very good contractor friend. He's trying to work me in on a weekend because he's very busy during the week. That way I pay less...thanks to him.
