Last week we had a mini blizzard that gave us a nice snow,last night around 2am I heard it literally pouring rain,Greg called from a course hes taking and said roads were horrible to drive on! I went to feed horses this morning and had to break through HARD snow to get there!Just now looked outside and its snowing large flakes,coming down pretty good! Snow,rain,and more snow on top of rain does not make for nice,driving or walking Confused Not only that but car doors frozen shut!

Yeah, but think of all the grass thats going to grow, when it gets warm out. I'd sure take some of the excess moisture you've got. Send it COD, OK? Wink

It was raining here last night and this morning, too. The highway was closed for awhile this morning, semis were lined up on the sides of the road. But the sun came out later this morning, and started melting the ice and the pavement is dry. Good thing, because we had to load two semis with wheat this morning!

Your welcome. It was! Wink

By the way, we did get a rain today, but oldtimer hogged his share as it went over evidently, cuz we only got a sprinkle. Can you figure out a way to get it past him without him stealing any? Say what? Wink

Well we haven't had much snow at all this winter but last week we had freezing rain and it was a sheet of ice on everything. Today the sun came out the wind came up and water was runing every where. The crick that runs in front of the house that only is a run off stream was running today. I didn't think we had enough of anything to run but we sure got rid of some ice today. Oh yea I saw a gopher. Must be spring.

We saw one a week and a half ago Mad Need to get a good scope for Calamity Jane's .22, she's a good shot. We'll probably have to use our gopher blower upper, too. Twisted Evil
