    Worst of it (that I know of anyway) is in my area - pretty much as usual. Good new is that they backed down on the forecast and it's only 8-12" now for today. Still at 3-5" for tomorrow, then more on Tuesday.

    Raining this morning on our walk. It is nice to get out regularly now even though it is raining. End of the work week thankfully. Sickness is still rampant throughout the school. I was hoping Spring Break would have broken the cycle. 3 1/2 months to go until summer holidays. Going to be a busy 3 1/2 months.

    Had my weekly drive across 1/2 of the U.P. again this morning. Very nice conditions, dry roads, clear skies, low traffic!
    Stopped in a home depot along the way and got some Kingsford charcoal for a little under $10 for two large bags!!

    Thanks to gbreda for the tip.

    That was a ton of rain for us. I swear we didn't see the sun until this afternoon, after like 6 days.

    Yes, yes it is. Just found out that a buddy's father in law had a massive stroke in the last big snowstorm we had about 2 weeks ago. 69 yrs old, wrestling with the snowblower. One of 5 people in SE Wisconsin that died from clearing that snow.

    That pothole is so deep, that that poor little elf had no chance! You can barely see the top of his hat!

    Sorry to hear that, always a tragic unexpected loss that leaves those close by with "what if" guilt.

    Some people will stoop so low... Just watching the news and as if a home burglary wasn't bad enough they took two family dogs.
    Words cannot describe what I'd do to them.

    Luckily the weatherman totally blew it! We only got a couple of inches of snow.
