I just heard on the radio my county, as well as several along the WI.-IL. have qualified for disaster relief due to the high amounts of snowfall. Alot of the townships had already used 75% of their snow removal budget by mid January! A couple of weeks ago the salt supply was exhausted & we're expecting a couple of inches tonight. YES - Everyone is grumpy in this area! We're so tired of this winter, will it ever go away?

It got really cold here last night, but it's a sunny day so..

[AnetTeilor]

Well, just saw the forecost on the evening news. nice 16 c tonight, tomorrow, mid thirtys... Ill take some snow, summer going on forever here.

[Sensbachtal]

Grumpy...we're Grumpy...what the F***k do we have to be Grumpy about.

Here is the path from my front door to the drive

[gamblingstats]

What's that white stuff!

[Sensbachtal]

cotton we've been pikin' cotton

[dXI9XFOA]

Yeah, and we are supposed to get 1 - 3 or more by tomorrow noon....

[ugosanchezo]

We're getting more tomorrow night as well. No going out AGAIN with my buddy from work AGAIN this week, damn it. Have I mentioned lately how much I miss living farther south (not that much farther south but I didn't even own a snow brush last year until March!)

Ron, pickin' cotton - hahaha...that cracked me up....at least you can enjoy your greenhouse....Oh wait, that's Glen's!

[Sensbachtal]

it was sunny today and the greenhouse temps was around 75...felt good. I spent a couple of hours there today and had lunch with Glen and the crew.

You know...it is the best of both worlds...I can grow in a greenhouse yet I don't have fuel bills...what else could one ask for...esp in the northeast. It also has allowed me to increase my collection to a size that I could not have imagined before. I have been very creative in creating growing space without taking up any more bench room.

We are due for another 5" tomorrow night. Of course that is an Albany forecast ...I will probably get 8-10"

A haiku, to help Ron make the transition...

Spring, a state of mind;
ideas bloom and dreams leaf out.
Keep shoveling Ron.

It snowed on and off the last two days here, but I guess we ended up with a grand accumulation of about 2"!!!!! It never even accumulated on blacktop surfaces. We had highs in the low 30's and nights in the mid 20's. Today it was sunny and 50.

Of course the cold sleet and snow nights I was at the fairgrounds helping to set up an orchid display for our societies participation in the Nashville Lawn and Garden Show. I hate moving chids in the snow (even if its only an inch deep).

[ugosanchezo]

Argh! 4-10" expected tonight! GRRR!

Nice Haiku, John.

It's Feb. 29
Spring arrives in three weeks, yes?
Mmm, smell of bark mulch.

[Sensbachtal]

and spring arrives by the calendar at your house...I could only wish. They are upping our storm amounts for tonight as well Well next week is above freezing in the daytime but with rain in the forecast.

The first shot made me so homesick I couldn't muster a reply initially. My x-country skis are just sitting the the closet with the car's extra rims, and I so enjoyed skiing back in the day. There's too much freezing rain here, which makes it hard to do much, and I can't fully appreciate the beauty knowing what it's doing to the trees. Luckily, spring and fall are beautiful, and I don't see myself as a permanent Missouri resident...been really sick in a sinus sort of way since moving here almost two years ago; I had no idea there was a place worse for that than where I was. Live and learn.

I love getting out in the woods on my X-country skiis. It is snowing again...another foot expected tonight.
