Perry, I think your on my Grandfathers side.
The depression didn't set in till she cancelled our Florida trip.

Something about spending all our vacation cash on "Beer"
Never heard of something so crazy.

"Every day seems to start out the same here.
Wake up to more new snow fall and single digits
Schools closed again
Plow driveway so wife can go to work
Snowblow path in back yard so little dog can crap
Try to find mailbox after county plow truck passes by
Risk life going to town for more beer
Watch weatherman and see the same for tomorrow
Look in direction of where beehives used to be seen
Go to bed drunk and depressed
Start all over in the morning
We having fun yet? "

TOOO FUNNNY!!!!!

Good evening all. Hope all y'all are keeping warm and safe. We had some snow here a couple of days ago. I haven't been in Texas long enough to forget how to have fun in the snow...I built a snowman.

The eyes are chocolate chips.

Woke up this morning with a 45 degrees outside and looked at weather report and do you believe snow tomorrow, well we have gotten it here before but it has been only light dusting. Just hope not a 1973 one with 23 inches of the stuff, closed every thing that day and the next until it kind of melted away petty fast, not out of the woods yet.

iddee · « **Reply #226 on:** January 27, 2014, 12:43:28 pm »

60 F. here today. Forecast 30 F. for a high tomorrow, with snow. Everyone I know has pneumonia. Just wish it would be constant for awhile.

tefer2 · « **Reply #227 on:** January 28, 2014, 07:43:01 am »

A balmy -12F here this morning. We're getting used to kind of weather somewhat.
If Lake Michigan freezes over we will have Wisconsin weather and sunshine.

They say everything is bigger in Texas......................................I beg to differ!

Walt B · « **Reply #229 on:** January 28, 2014, 08:00:17 am »

Good morning all. Supposed to have a high a little above freezing today. Supposed to be in the 70's Friday. Wonder how I caught a cold?

Perry's right, not everything is bigger in Texas.

OKAY JIM, On a nice sunny day it's apropriate to give you a welcome to the forum. Getting straight into posting, you almost slipped in under the fence without proper recognition.
How about telling us something about yourself and your background with bees. We're not only friendly, we're a curious group.
WELCOME

cold you say MM? hello from the center of the polar vortex again today......i think the snow blower has more mileage on it now, than my jeep, and my garage is colder than a walk in freezer.....a friend sent me this, this morning......

A Wisconsin Poem

It's Winter in Wisconsin
And the gentle breezes blow.
Seventy miles an hour,
At thirty-five below.

Oh, how I love Wisconsin,
When the snow's up to your butt.
You take a breath of winter air
And your nose gets frozen shut.

Yes, the weather here is wonderful,
So I guess I'll hang around.
I could never leave Wisconsin,
'Cause I'm frozen to the ground!

..............

Sounds a bit like Robert Service riverbee.

Here is a limerick about cold in Canada

I met an old man from Quebec,
Who was stuck in the snow to his neck;
I said are you frizz, and he said yes I is,
But we doan call this cold en Quebec!

Wife is down in Bama doing an audit for the company she works for..
She said traffic is nearly at a standstill. There is no milk or bread on any shelf, and the lines at the gas stations are LONG... They have closed most businesses and all the schools....

I asked why the panic?

She replied, with a funny catch in her voice...

They are expecting three inches of SNOW

When I finished laughing... I had to ask her if she was serious... She was..

"You would think a hurricane was about to hit here.. The guys riding with me werent impressed with me passing everyone driving 12 mph, so I had to tell them a bit about winters in Iowa and Maine... 3" is a flurry, not a blizzard. They still werent impressed, and didnt let me drive anymore because I am crazy.. I hope that they get to ride with YOU in your truck one blustery winter day, then maybe they will understand CRAZY..

Supposed to be 36 today, 42 tomorrow!!!!!!! Hopefully the bees will MOVE to resources.. The Winter siege is giving us a VERY short break thankfully, but looks like back to teens and 20's by Friday..

1.5" of snow through about midnight, schools closed because the temp was only 16 this am and roads very slick. Bright sun outside today and snow melting despite a high of only 36, but that brings more drama.

Drove my son to a friend last night around 8:30pm and I am well versed in Snowy roads and they were bad off the main roads... my 16 year old came back from swim practice around 7:30 and took almost dble the time as normal. Her boyfriend and Two of her friends did not do so well, all leaving the road and that was a HUGE wake up for her.

This morning she says "my brakes are funny , they keep pulsing when I stop" ... needless to say more education needed.

School already closed for tomorrow as the roads WILL Freeze hard tonight - forecast is 17 again. While city roads are not the issue , it is the rural county roads that dont get salt or even ploughed, already hard packed ice in places according to friends who live out there.

South not used to this white stuff.
