Going to work. See y'all at midnight.

Black Yaris · 12-21-2008, 04:06 PM

it is damn cold out

Black Yaris · 12-21-2008, 04:07 PM

can't wait till Saturday, we will be up at my grandparents about 1/2 way up Michigan, where they have tons of snow....... so we are going Skiing!

Black Yaris · 12-21-2008, 04:33 PM

best way to learn to drive in the snow and ice is to find an empty parking lot and start playing with the throttle, brake and hand brake to make the car go "out of control" so you can feel what it does and you can learn to correct it

Rain · 12-21-2008, 04:34 PM

Thanks for the tips Black Yaris :]

Very good description. It's as much watching out for everyone else as it is watching what you're doing and how you're doing it. It's a true test of your multi-taskin skills. lol

Rain · 12-21-2008, 05:18 PM

Oh wow. Never mind. I don't think I'd be ready to do that

Rain · 12-21-2008, 05:21 PM

March is a month where it can go either way. We can still be having snowstorms then. The temps are bit more mild...40's, maybe 50's if we're lucky.

But with regards to snowfall, I had my oldest daughter May SIXTEENTH of 1990...and 2 days before we had a snowstorm that dropped 8 inches.

Not much fun to be had around here tonight. It's a bit quiet in the house.

m911gt · 12-21-2008, 06:56 PM

Well, look who it is...the first time I've been at a computer since Thursday. Lisa, not to be a jerk but I spent about five hours yesterday on a beach in Tampa Bay. :) We ate at a restaraunt on an island...the restaraunt is owned by a guy from Neenah and the entire place is decorated with Packer/Favre memorabilia...very cool. Anyway, just thought I'd stop by and say hello to everyone.

Happy Holidays!

I was just thinking how nice the weather must be where you are. Funny!

You're not a jerk, Silly...I'm glad you're having a great time!

m911gt · 12-21-2008, 07:05 PM

Well, you ladies have a nice evening...I will talk to you later ;)

Lisa, stay warm! u2 Rain...although I think you will have an easier time doing that than Lisa will.
