Spring will just not..... SPRING!!

[Lisa Almquist]

Have you heard that we up north here are under a Winter Storm Warning tomorrow through Tuesday? Here's a quote from the NWS:

Quote:

TOTAL SNOW ACCUMULATIONS OF 6 TO 12 INCHES ARE

POSSIBLE ACROSS ITASCA...CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN SAINT

LOUIS...CARLTON... PINE... DOUGLAS...BURNETT AND WASHBURN

COUNTIES BY WEDNESDAY MORNING.

Are any of you as tired of winter as I am?

Alright, I'll stop complaining (but I refuse to shovel any of this stuff)!

What was everyone up to this weekend? I've been working all weekend (gasp! shock!) but I also got to head up to Two Harbors last night for my mom's and sister's birthday party so I got to squeeze a little bit of fun!

[Charley]

They're not always right you know. lol

I pick up line and few goodies. I off to Tucson,AZ on Wed.- Sat. hopfully I'll bing back some warm weather with me. lol And???

[Lisa Almquist]

I'm hoping that they've made a very catastrophic mistake on forecasting this one Charley!!

My sister used to live in Tucson. We'd visit her over Spring break and jump in her apt. building's pool while all her neighbors thought we were nuts because it was a cold day at 62 degrees!! They were still wearing their "winter" coats for goodness sakes! How could we be swimming in such weather?!

[Steve Foss]

Yeah, I'm tired of winter. Just. Plain. Old. Tired.

[mngirl]

I am tired of this too!!!! I spent today cleaning my sister and her bf's house, it's going on the market tomorrow. And the allergies I am now dealing with would be so much better if they were from being outside, not dust we kicked up all day inside . Oh well, all good things come to those who wait, right? We will just appreciate spring more when it actually gets here!

[Lisa Almquist]

Good attitude mngirl! Too bad I'm too busy complaining about the snow to see the good side of this! Ha!

[mngirl]

I haven't heard the forecast yet for down here, and trust me, I'll be crabbing tomorrow!!!!!

I went down to Buffalo to the state conference for Let's Go Fishing With Seniors, learned a ton of things and had a blast. Today I spent the whole day working on our local chapters HSOforum which will be up and running by tomorrow night. I got up today, turned on the computer, heard my weatherbug squeaking and read about the weather and wanted to just crawl back in bed.

[Eric Wettschreck]

Lisa, it's all my fault. I'm sorry. I took the plows off the work trucks a couple days ago. My bad, I should have known better.

If it makes you feel any better, down here on the prairie we're looking at a foot of snow and 40 MPH winds the next couple of days.

Snow and wind, welcome to the prairie.

[Charley]

Lisa-- Did you go to any of the local watering holes in Tucson? Could you recommend any.

[broken_line]

whohhhooooo just like last year put the pickle away and get to ride once agian =) i hear 16.8 according to accuweather fo my neck of the prarie....

[Charley]

We realy could use some White Bear is low right now.

[Lisa Almquist]

That's right-it's all BG's fault!

Barb! That's very cool! Email me the link so I can see your fresh new site! Are you going to the Swap?

Charley, I was still in high school when she lived down there. Sorry I can't help you on the fun spots! She lives back here in MN now.

[UdeLakeTom]

No problem with the snow...I'll just roll over in bed, or have another cup on coffee, and wait it out. But with the grandkids on spring break, it could get a little nicer.

BG...it's my fault.....we put the sleds in storage and got out the bikes for the little ones.

ULT, so, being offically retired now you going to take the blame for everything???? i get to go to sioux falls sd tomorrow, working on changing that to thurs.

[Gary Crichton]

I think I would be changing that date Big Guy. Could be a little bit of a rough trip.

ULT I like your thinking.

Lisa people were golfing yesterday down here. I had a fire and cooked up some perch and Northern last nite outside.

G.C.

[UdeLakeTom]

The only bad thing is that I am supposed to donate blood tomorrow. I hope I can make it. Otherwise, I'll be thinking of you poor guys driving to work.

So I guess that while I am cleaning the garage today, I better not put away the shovels!!

[fishinchicks]

glenn - if you take hwy 23 to sioux falls, you will be just a few miles from my place when you cruise past Cottonwood.

We've been downgraded to a winter weather advisory here. We're supposed to be getting more rain than other places. That'll cut down on the snow totals, but hopefully that won't mean ice.

[glenn57]

really. i do go that way. i am concerned about blowing snow in that open country. my uncles wife, my aunt is from cottonwood. do you know the matthis family. i think thats how its spelled, her dads name was emil.

SO. where did you buy your perch?

[Gary Crichton]

Same place you got yours from Big Guy.

[Gary Crichton]

Oh yipeee I get to go to Owatonna and then to Coon Rapids. Leaving now.

Feeling like you Big Guy.

G.C.

[fishinchicks]

Yes, I know some of the Matthys family. What is your aunt's name? Does she have any siblings in the area still?

Personally, I would postpone the trip. We are supposed to have sustained winds up to 30 mph tomorrow.

[glenn57]
