Arctic weather finally moved out. We had well over a month of -20F or lower, lots of -35F weather day and night. 32F today and lots of snow and ice melting. Temps in the 30's this week and 50's the week after. Time to get out to the range and shred some targets again.

Calving under way at lots of ranches now, and spring brandings on the horizon....

Had our first day above 50 since our flirt with an early spring in January. And it's sunny too!

Having my second Henry mug of hot double mocha to start the day.

We're getting a taste of spring in the KCMO area, but touches of the "cyclone" (winter storm) happening throughout the upper Midwestern states, and CO, are evident here as well. The main impact from that is pretty strong wind the last couple of days; been a challenge to keep the car steady on the highway. But of course, we're not having the blizzard so many folk are facing. And unfortunately, heading toward the east now.

Hope people hunker down and stay safe.

Finally it's warmed up and starting to thaw a bit. I still have a half mile river of ice for a driveway, but got it sanded this week so we can get in and out. Looks like it will be sunny and in the forties today with warmer weather coming next week. Been a rough winter my friends.

Got this link from another forum and it's pretty interesting.

The green dots on this Google Earth represent a radio station anywhere in the world.


Click on any one of the dots and you will immediately listen to that station with very good sound. I cannot imagine the effort that went in to this!
