Cool. Have fun and enjoy! Cheers!
Exactly!
68 here in Richmond today.
I'm off to tackle my daily stairs. 18 trips up these suckers = Amicalola falls' stairs.
Stearman: They're in Byrd park and one hell of a workout. Where are you hiking around Richmond these days? I'm getting bored of the Northbank/Buttermilk loop.

It seems like spring is starting to come around here. Saw a couple lizards in the last two days; my banana tree is growing again and I came home to numerous flocks of birds (various species), they were resting in all the surrounding trees and sh1tted on everything:mad:
That's the price you pay for good temps:D

Spring? I don't think so. We've got enough snowpack here to last until May. Quite the winter (so far).

It's official, spring is here in Northeast Florida. I can feel the tree pollen in my nose.
For all you northerners, this doesn't apply to you. Sorry, I'm not bragging, it's not bragging when it's a fact. My nose is much more reliable than some damn rodent.
Heard that the Groundhog emphasized that Global Warming is a hoax!

The groundhog in Millinocket froze to death...
Everyone knows groundhogs in Pennsylvania's Piedmont are the best weather prognosticators of them all. They spend Groundhog Day hibernating deep within their burrows where the sun never shines and no one can see their shadows.
Spring is always comes earlier here than in Punxsutawney.

Even here in West Texas it hasn't been over 15 for a high since Monday. It would really suck to live somewhere that has winter all winter.

They say the appearance of Robins is a sign of Spring. I counted 16 at once in my back yard on ground hog day in western NC.

I'm so........ sooo envious... I wouldn't even mind the bird *****. I'm so sick of the cold, and these half a**, one inch, muddy Tennessee snows that no one here knows how to drive on. Who really wants to make a muddy snowman? lol. I love Tennessee with all my heart, but I wish I could fly south.
