What, we had to wait until SPRING, to get nasty winter weather?? What's up with that??..what happened to "global warming"??
Ice, and freezing rain, and hail, and thunder and lightning, and snow, and back to sleet,then back to freezing rain, and since we are in the valley, it's raining like hell, then freezing on the ground!!
Drove my van out of the parking lot, and the snow crust is SO HARD. the van drove ON TOP OF THE SNOW, instead of THROUGH IT!!
Still will NEVER compare to the Eastern Ontario storm of the 90's, BUT, it's getting close!!
That's it...ENOUGH of this winter already!!
Mike

Hey Ryan, now we know why Johnny Crouton didn't send the troops overseas; they're needed to clear the two inches of snow in TO.
PS Ryan, you had to know this post was coming!!!
PPS I'll bet dollars (even chocolate ones) to donuts that V didn't get her mini van stuck :)
Rock on..................................................
 
Problem is, it's not snow. Snow I can handle - I hate it, but it's manageable.

This, is ice. Pure and simple, ice. Car drives on top of it, but has no traction to move.

2 days until I'm in the Dominican :)
 
Geez guys!! Ours is due here tomorrow 4"-8" in our area but I'm driving south tomorrow a.m. with hubby where it's supposed to be a mix of snow, sleet, & rain....

ICEY Dicey HERE

Had to drive up to the Sault today...480 mile round trip...

Not'n but Ice here in the lower, much nicer north of the Mighty Mac...

Here in the Tri's we have a couple inches of ICE, trees com'n down...power lines exploding

Was gonna take time to stop and see ya Audra, but they would not let me across the border...

Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong story:(
 
Your just living in the wrong part of Canada!

Here in lotus land (Victoria), we actually had snow this winter...

lasted less than 24 hours though.:p

Hyacinths & daffodils are in full bloom, tulips almost ready to burst open, and lilac should be fully fragrant for Mother's Day.

Makes it hard to sell fresh cuts, when everyone has them in their gardens!

The best part of this winter is that I've only had to cut the grass twice in March...

SURE DO MISS THAT WHITE STUFF!!!
 
Sheesh you guys, what a bunch of whiney butts...
If you want to talk about winter weather, it got down to 67 degrees here today and there was a cloud in the sky :p I don't know how much longer I can take this cold weather....

Ryan, You have to put gas in it......FTD only supplies the van!!!

How about they give you the gas instead.

Now THERE'S a good idea. So when is BN starting that contest, Peter?

I should mention that our GM Savanna has not gotten stuck once this winter - she's a good girl :)
 
Front Row Detroit Wings Playoff Tickets?

Peter, if you can get me about 4 front row tickets behind the wings bench during the 7 game series in June here at the JOE I'll become a BN Member!

Just funnin ya...only Two tickets required!
 
Luc...my dear Luc....IF I WANTED TO kick my butt, it would be because I'm not in Costa Rica...where there is no dam* snow or ice...just lush green vegetation, blue skies, sun, sand and surf...boy this is getting depressing...:(

If I could help during Mama's week I would...I send a hug instead.

P.S. Brenda said to say hi. :)

I doubt even with my contacts I could get even 1 ticket, a friend of mine grew up with Shanahan and he tried last spring for tickets, and he couldn't get any off him. The Joe is a great place thou, been there before and sat on the bench (off season) took some pictures inside. I have a great picture of the trophy case.
