Hello Blue
Woke up to -13 here in the Detroit area. We have sun and -6 now.
We are waiting for Saturday's warmer air to arrive.
S.J.
Good Friday morning to ya all. Yet another weekend is here, and a new month as well. We are well into 2019 and I'm still stuck in 2004.

It was suppose to rain last night and this morning, but I don't see a trace. There's lots of water in the gutter, but that's because one of our neighbors has a sever leak in their watering system and probably won't know how bad until they get their water bill. We had an underground leak once and our bill went up by well over $60. Our lawn watering system has been shut off most of the time we've been in this house. We have no grass, just nothing but cactus and they seem to be able to take care of themselves by storing water when it does rain. So do the weeds, so it seems.
Greetings, gang.

Sunny and 0 with an expected high in the mid 20s. Upper 30s tomorrow and mid 40s on Sunday. Winter comes back on Monday with cold and chances for snow.

Quiet day yesterday. Stayed in again except for a quick grocery run. Today's agenda includes a trip to the gym and maybe some laundry.

All stay safe.

Tom
Morning.  38 and sunny.  50+ today.  Hope the deep freeze has subsided up north.

Lunch meeting [seafood] and biggie meeting with Spectrum [that will be interesting]. 

Have a good one.
Happy Ground Hog Day, gang.

Foggy and 37 this morning. When I went to bed last night it was 23. High for today is supposed to be about 40. Only 45 days til spring.

Went to the gym and got laundry done. This morning I'm headed to Sioux Falls for grandson's hockey tournament. Be back tomorrow afternoon.

All stay safe.

Tom
Good morning all. Yeah, it is Groundhog Day, I guess it's time to pull out the movie and watch it yet another time.

Low temps in the mid-50's, highs suppose to be around 69 by one TV personality, 66 by my weather app. There's rain in the forecast for tonight and tomorrow morning. Got a 10% chance on Monday, I hope not, I'm headed out to do some target shooting then, that is if we can find a spot that's not posted by now. It's been almost a year since I've been out but I think we'll go, even if it's raining.
45 and sunny.  50's today.  70's next week.  Busy day.
Hello Blue
Well we made it through the sub zero days and now it's cloudy and 43 degrees.
If the temp reaches 50 here in Michigan we all get out our summer clothes.
Snow on the ground will be gone in time for our next storm.
S.J.
59 and partly cloudy.  Resting up.  Busy week ahead.

Where is Tom?  DAZ, all OK?

Have a good one.
Well, the groundhog predicts a short winter says the news. Don't really care that much, just that I hope we have a few more months before the 100° plus, temps hit us. It rained last night just as they said it would, suppose to stop around noon. Don't know what it's doing in Scottsdale though, but it wouln't be the first time they had to postpone the final round of the Phoenix Open. I've always wondered why they have that on the same day as the Super Bowl, why not a week later? Must be something in their genes that makes them want to outshine the other....

Don, wasn't the super bowl played 2 weeks earlier a few years ago before the leagues got greedy and added all the extra play off games to add revenue to the coffers? Maybe the question would be why do they have the super bowl the same time as the Phoenix Open. Frankly, golf is the only sport I watch, and I don't play golf either, but I do think there is more dignity among the players.

Morning.  40 and fair.  Got things on the agenda for most of the day.  County Commissioners at 5.

Tom is missing.  Last post was Thursday.  Headed to see his Grandson play hockey. ????

What is Super Bowl?   Icon_rolleyes  

Have a good one.

Good point, don't remember though since I stopped interest in just about all sports when they started paying players some eight figure salaries and they still acted like children on the field. But yeah, the last year they had both the Open and the Super Bowl being played here, they Open did move the final round to Monday. I'm guessing that will happen again the next time this comes up. No, don't expect them to move the Super Bowl date, there's too much money and power there to stop them from doing what they please....

Yesterday rain stopped mid-morning, it rained again early this morning (my newspaper is wet), but it looks like it's drying now. Good thing, we're heading out to the desert to do some target shooting in a few hours. Let's hope they haven't posted more spots....
Greetings, gang.

It was +52 degrees when I got home from Sioux Falls yesterday afternoon. That represents a 76 degree change from Last Wed. morning when it was -24F. On the way home yesterday it was foggy with visibility down to less than an eighth of a mile at times. My daughter, on the other had fought snow, wind, sleet, and single digit temperatures on her way back to Rapid City. Right now it's 18 degrees falling to 11 by late this afternoon. Supposed to be back below zero by Thursday. Iowa weather.

Had a lot of fun in Sioux Falls. Grandson lost both games by one point . Some friends of my daughter drove over for the weekend. We had a pot luck on Saturday evening in the motel. On Sunday more friends drove over and we were able to recreate a photo from a year ago with the four kids. A good time was had by all.

Only items on the agenda for today are paying bills and maybe a trip to the gym.

All stay safe.

Tom
Good morning all. Did go target shooting yesterday. Spotty rain on the way out, but none where we went, until we were packed and ready to leave. Then it started to trickle, so we did OK and stayed dry. And yes, it was cold after a while, but the break I got was worth it.

Rain in today's forecast. Alexa says 40%, weather app says 60%.

New layout bench is built, just needs some paint and moved into the house. You can see my progress here in N scale
