It got a little cool last friday so my boy and me decided to go rambling and wound up at the state line. Do you think I could come up north for a visit to warm up?  :)

It is like spring here if you don't mind coming WAY north. :D That is unbelievable, you southern guys do something to make the weatherman mad?

If you can manage to get to the prairies it's supposed to be warm all this week.   ;)

I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it. ;)

How much ended up sticking on the ground?

This happens once every 15 or 20 years. We probably got less than an inch and it  melted by nightfall, but a few miles on into Alabama I heard 2" to 4".

We had 4-6" up here.  I tried to send it all your way.

Olen, we had our share here too. Like Fish, we got 4-6 inches, and it stayed around for a couple, three days.

Sounds like I need to go visit Charlie and Coon real soon.

Judson said, yea Dwight thats me.  He thinks he's taller than me now, but I know better. Anybody knows by looking at the picture, that the camera was tilted, I was standing in a hole and slumped over. The snow was blowing down my collar making me reel my neck in. He had heel boots on, was standing on a hill and the sign was crooked. He's got one of those high fitting hats too.  :)

Come on down anytime Marcel. We'll go to the beach if it's not cold enough. I have been trying to figure how to get to the pig roast again this year. If I can twist DanGs arm to go with me again, it could work out. I've got the video, if you can check them out, maybe it's a good mill.

Wow Radar, snow to play in for several days. Wish we could have had a foot or more.

Well no wonder he was taller than you were! I was wondering how that could have happened and now I know the truth! 8)

Olen,

That is a pretty severe slope that you are standing on.  Looks a little mountainous so that must be why you look so short.  That and the camera angle had to create an illusion delusion  :).

That can't be the little guy that went over to DanG's with us a few years ago.  Olen musta strapped him in a leg stretcher.  Maybe you shoulda tried it Olen.
