We had flurries yesterday. Still drove it. But I want spring weather to get here so I can take the top off.

Between Minnesota politics and weather, not much to miss if you leave...

Oh come on now - That darn Minnesota - it's the hot bed of tourist destinations. You've got the Mall of America, wintertime frozen tundra, summertime bird size mosquitoes and the Spam Museum. Frankly I've never understood why folks go to places like Maui, Paris and Vegas

No sign of Spring, North of Boston. The month of Feb. we had a major snow storm every weekend. One storm the Gov. ordered everyone off the road for 48hrs. A few weeks later we were supposed to 3-6 and got blasted with 24+. People on the coast are losing there homes into the ocean. Last Monday night we got another foot of flurries. On the good side, the March sun is warm and the #$%^ is melting at a good rate every day. Just watching the news and they said last year on this date the temp. was 83. As they say, "If you don't like the weather in New England,Just wait a minute".

Expecting 4-6 more inches of snow here in the STL area I'm told. Yay. Really thrilled by this.

That's why we save so much money on travel. Why go anywhere else..

We've been below normal temps every day this month and three times our normal snow amount. More snow coming Mon/Tues.

But...today was nice and sunny so after a crappy day at work I took the vette for a short spin. Have to be on high alert for pot holes! Can't wait for the roads to be free of all the gravel and crap so I can go for a real drive
