We sure got fooled over the last couple of days, was wearing just T-Shirts already with 40* temps and now today blowing drifts in my driveway.

Morning/afternoon all.  Not cold at all here, 30 degrees, but the snow started dumping a few hours ago.

Good evening everyone. Woke up to -3 degrees and 6 inches of snow on the ground and more snow coming down. 

Went to physical therapy  this morning and they bent my leg back behind me and hooked my heal on my shoulder...I swear it's the truth...well it sure felt like it.

Built a couple of Linstocks for the slow match to fire the cannon this weekend...Hey Ernie we need a digital video camera so we can a You Tube.  My digital camera make movies but they are not YouTube stuff.

I do have a little digital video camera . Uses a one or two Gig card , Will get the batteries charged .
Scored one bowling ball , 3 free pins . Had to pay $2 for the ball. Got to get busy scrounging the oil field for suitable ball sized tube. 

The Boys lost, close game . The two technicals called in the the last 18 seconds sort of killed the game . Lost by 3 points , all from one foul and the two technicals.

It dipped to a -8 on the way home , Was snowy , sunny , warm and freezing today all in a matter of hours . Daughter and husband escaped serious mishap today unscathed. Darn snow plows , Semi trucks and impatient drivers . Rial Turners Pickup was totaled . Not sure of all the details .

We were at 7* and the snow has been comeing down pretty good for a couple hours.  Didn't have much snow this morning, but the wind was really cutting thru ya.  Sounds like could get 5-8 inches of the powder by the time it ends in the morning.  If the wind gets much stronger, it could drift pretty good.  DP
