It'll be a While
These pictures are the front and back of my place this morning April 2nd. I guess it'll be a while before I take Ole Pinky out after hibernating all Winter. Just afootnote here, my garage roof collapsed Mid-February from the weight of the snow, and the insurance is going to build me a new one in May.

Re: It'll be a While
That just sucks. I was sweating on the way home from work yesterday in the burb with no a/c. I don't see how you can stand all that snow.

Re: It'll be a While
I'm in my 60's and have been dealing with this all my life but this year is extreme as 70/80% of the snow is usually gone by now. If I had been born the Northern USA I would have moved south when I was 18.

Re: It'll be a While
5 weeks ago we had 30 inches of snow on the ground. Now it's all gone.

Re: It'll be a While
Yesterday it was in the 70's here. Today it's in the 40's, and I thought that sucked. Thanks for making me feel better, but I still want to move father south.

Re: It'll be a While
At least you don't have to deal with the mosquitos up there......I think I would rather the mosquitos though. It's been in the high 70's here this week and the mosquitos are as bad as I have ever seen them here.

Re: It'll be a While
Greg, Maybe you need to be looking at more than just pickups.
