Default Ahhhh, spring has arrived!

In Minne, the first 40 degree day is met with T-Shirts, shorts, and a nice walk with your best buddy.



Snow be damned!

Cheers to that. Its finally nice out here in Manitoba, Canada. Been a messed up Winter this year, little snow but very cold in the -50c range. And now all of a sudden as of last week, we're in the 0 to -8 range, love it.

Down here in the SouthEast, we know springtime is here when the Nascar boys haulers start going up and down the roads. Might be coldish the first few weeks of racing season, but warm weather is just around the next corner.
It was almost 70 here today...Friday morning I had fresh snow. The saying here is "if you don't like the weather in Georgia, wait about 5 minutes. It will change."
I got a laugh out of the "0 to -8 degree range, love it" comment!

HA HAAAAAA Awesome.
We had 45 degrees too. It was awesome. Sun was strong. Tomorrow is 45 degrees as well and Wednesday may hit 50 degrees. Let the snow melt baby!!! lol
The last time we were at 45 degrees was on January 15. Almost 2 months ago.

-50C is in a different league, that's -58F! I can imagine that leads to serious shrinkage. I also bet that 0 feels downright balmy.
Here's to a long & mild/ dry spring!

You guys have had an epic winter. I feel for you. Imagine it looks like July before all the snow is gone, huh?

We are happy to do so Wayne. But be careful what you wish for. Melting too fast will give you all kinds of other problems.
Besides, have all that new stuff to keep you occupied. You only need it warm enough to get out into the garage!

Hahaha you have no idea, good 'ol Canadian weather where it hurts to even breath when outside. -50c is warm compared to where I'm originally from which is 1000kms further North where its -60c to -65c on average in the Winter and last much longer to haha.
The 0c temperatures right now is pretty much shorts and t-shirt weather.

Yeah,....it was brutal Bill. I have never seen it like this before. I remember the Blizzard Of '78, a littler bit, but these storms were bad. AND COLD!!! It was always cold.
We had some good melting today, as well as yesterday and tomorrow is supposed to be over 50!! Bring it on. We need the snow to melt slowly though. We have A LOT of it. lol
Yeah,...maybe May before it's all gone. Sucks. I'm dying to drive my car.
