View Full Version : What Spring?!
Just as we get rolling into March and things are supposed to be looking good to get the boats all shined up and ready for the first "fly by", I just came in from blowing snow for the third time tonight with about 8 inches of new stuff on the gorund, and anoth 4-5 expected by morning. Time to move to Arizona!!!!!!!! http://www.checkmate-boats.com/6/ws/,s,8626072361/Graemlins/jpshakehead.gif

Same story here Bill. We are supposed to get a storm tonight, with lots of snow. They say it should head warmer temperatures by the weekend. http://www.checkmate-boats.com/6/ws/,s,8626072361/Graemlins/thumb.gif

Same story over here. Today was in the 50's. I uncovered the boat to get started with some mods I want to do. It felt good to be on it, even though it is on a trailer in my yard. Tonight we are supposed to get 1"-3" of white stuff---AGIAN--- I hate winter..... http://www.checkmate-boats.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif
We just go covered by tons and tons of snow. I think I have used the snowblower more times in the last 2 weeks then I have all other winters... http://www.checkmate-boats.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif

Luckily I have a 13 yr. old kid who now knows how to use it, butt with adult supervision. It always seems like we get snow when I am either working my 24 Hour or my night shifts, so he goes out and does it. During the day though, I am stuck with it even though my truck would easily get by it all... http://www.checkmate-boats.com/6/ws/,s,8626072361/Graemlins/thumb.gif

http://www.checkmate-boats.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif same story here. I suppose we will have to keep the winter boats out a little longer.mabey anouther week. http://www.checkmate-boats.com/6/ws/,s,8626072361/Graemlins/bounce.gif
Yeah, except up here it may be 2-3 weeks. I have a comment/question to ya all... Try wearing firefighting suit in the summer when its 30 degrees out! My disadvantage...

Z. I though it might actually be cold by some of the temperatures you have been saying it is, you have been talking celsius. Man... it is colder here. Quit whining http://www.checkmate-boats.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif
Quit whining? I don't like -43 degrees celcius weather man, neither does my truck! My suit for firefighting keeps me warm though, but too warm in the summer!!!

I like my celsius thank you. Farenheit just makes it look warmer!

OKAY, celsius makes it look colder. HAH, gotcha! http://www.checkmate-boats.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif
I know. Even why I hear -43 it gives me shivers. I like when you guys say numbers in the 80's and 90's... Whatever that would be...
