Will Obama be flying out early to go meet Reggie and golf?

Good grief Vic--I was up in your neck of the woods last weekend.  Our friends still had a foot of snow in their backyard!  Everyone in PA that I ran across was so snow weary--you guys enjoy your week in Texas.  :beer:

This is the first winter I've experienced like this in my 42 years living in the Washington region.   It's more like you'd get in a mild Buffalo, NY winter.

In Buffalo, they usually get at least one snowfall of 4 feet or more...otherwise, I can't recall snow cover on the ground this frequently.

Global warming my butt.   :laugh:


Well, you'll be happy to see this morning's updated snow projection.   :beer:

Monday was a nice day, 60 degrees. Then all hell broke loose. All the schools and some businesses closed down on Wed. Yesterday, nearly all of it melted, and now, I have to use a boat to take the garbage out.  ^-^ We are expecting another round of snow by Wed. Gotta get out of this place!

The snow started here in Kentucky a couple of hours ago, we already have two inches.  It wasn't even predicted to start snowing for another bit.  They are saying 1 to 3 inches by morning but with the big flakes coming down right now, we'll have 3 inches in another hour or so. 

It's been a pattern here this winter - a couple of days in the 60's and 70's - snow melts and people are walking around in t-shirts and flip-flops, and the next day - it's back down in the 30's and 20's and the snow is back.  It's been hell on my sinuses!

It's been nasty here, too. Right now, there are flakes flying about, but nothing substantial. I have to look outside to check the weather because it changes so fast. One never knows whether to put on a jacket or Eskimo suit in this crazy Ohio weather.

Weather on the coast in Orange County: Sun-Mon- Sunny, Hi 80-82, low 54-55 F. Humidity 23%. Wind 6 mph.

Only complaint, we could really use a lot more rain this season.

I come in peace, I didn't bring artillery.  But I am pleading with you with tears in my eyes:  If you bleep with me, I'll kill you all.

Eat your heart out, Lips!  I am in the Hill Country.

Beautiful part of Texas, for sure! Are you near any of the many Wineries/Vineyards up there?

Sure does--I had the privilege of living in them hills for 10 years, not too far from where Vic's cabin is.  BEAUTIFUL country!

Indeed, it does. You should come here and scope it out.

LOL!  That boat sailed.

But I recall back in the middle of the real estate boom (02/03), I had sold a VA foreclosure to a bilingual Hispanic couple with a couple of rug rats for "only" $105,000.

In 2006 I sold it for them for $350,000.

They moved to Austin Texas....showed me a photo of a brick-front colonial which they had paid CASH for only $215,000.

Makes me smile whenever I think of them.    :laugh:

I saw similar things back in the mid 2000's there.  Many people flee'd from the Naples FLA area after the hurricanes. They were able to plunk down cash for palatial homes in and around Austin/Round Rock, etc. 

I read that during the housing market crash, the Naples FLA area was one of the hardest hit.

Hope that you had a pleasant visit, then!

The wife and I usually take a few days each Spring to take in the Bluebonnets and spend some time in and around Fredericksburg. Plenty of good stuff to do there and it's very relaxing.

Fredericksburg's a great trip, especially this time of year.  I used to live 1/2 south of there.

 If you're doing the bluebonnets, be sure to check out the Willow City Loop outside F'burg.  One of the best bluebonnet shows I have ever laid eyes on!
