    I think all that rain y'all were havin' in Texas done come up here to Tennessee and took root. Looks like we got it for the next four days. Reckon I'll just stay in and do my income tax. It's so damp I can't even go out and rub on the bike. But it is a certain amount of restitution just to know it's out there. They're havin' a big "Bike and Apparel (bad spelling)" show this Saturday down the road about 7-8 miles so I'm thinkin' on goin' down there. It'd be best to leave the plastic at home but ..............

    We had a bunch more snow than usual and now it's raining but when we put the garden out it'll probably be so dry we'll be belching dust.

    50 seems like a heat wave after the cold we have had for the past month. Saw Robins in the yard today means spring an’t far off.

    No snow on Sunday! I'm teaching this weekend.

    I taught two weekends ago, and we just made it under the wire. At exercise 14 (out of 17), a cold wind blew in and we could see the snow heading towards us from the mountains. I hate it when that happens. We were freezing.

    The rain finally set in this evening but I got finished polishing the bike plus went on a short ride before it set in. Supposed to rain through Monday but that's okay. At least I got out for a bit today.

    We got an inch of steady rain today some places had over 2 inches and then the winds came in from the Pacific storm that blew in, sheet it was cold and wet today. Sunday is looking promising with partly cloudy and 59 so maybe we can do our chapter ride. Sure be glad when it warm up a bit more.

    Yea, me to. :( We have not had a little ground shaking sense 1993, Calif. is the place to watch for.

    Spring is around the corner March 20th on the wifes birthday. Tonight we set the clocks forward (daylight savings time) so we'll get a hour longer of daylight, which is fine with me.

    Been cloudy and threatening to rain all day. We went to a Bike show a few miles from here. Thought about riding but didn't due to the looks of the sky. As it turned out we should have ridden because those "Looks" remained exaclty that - just looks. It never rained so when we got back, I got out for a few miles and while I was out, it tried to rain. It's supposed to move out for the most part tomorrow so hopefully we'll get a ride in after church. Still sort of cool but 46 is a fer cry from 26 so I'll take it.:)

    Arizona leaves the clocks alone wished all the states were like that. So why was it ever started in the first place.

    my understanding is to help us kids get to school and back home in the daylight. this was when i was a kid..when kids walked to school and played outside..now days kids either ride busses or get soccer mom'd...

    opps;;more.......
