Hahahaha, I think we’re all the same age, or very close. He remembers my Brat. 😊
He may be a couple years younger.
Still all old bastards. 😊

Haha, we have a lot in common.
7 boys, 1 girl in my family. She’s the second youngest. But she’s tougher than most guys. 😊 She has to be.

29 degrees and woke up to a white pasture. Southern snowfall= frost on the ground.

I grew up in central Florida and I was a teenager before I touched real snow...we got some snow flakes in 3rd grade (I think) and the whole school went out to the play ground to see it. Apparently I had a deprived youth!!

Haha. I can remember walking to school in blizzards. Not much fun when you are 8. 🥶
I’ll take the sun. 🥵

40F and cloudless skies as usual. Probably get rain next week sometime or next Spring.

BTW, wife and I did a motorcycle trip to NS and PEI about 10 years ago...great trip and wonderful sea food!!!

Mid 50's partly cloudy here today. Warming trend during week. Work back into low 60's by end week. Rain chances slim.

Ha, very cool. Did you go around the Cabot Trail, in Cape Breton. A favourite for bikers. Hope everyone was nice.
Next time bring the SXS and look me up. I’ll show you a little bit of the back woods in Cape Breton. 😊
Monte is coming too. Hopefully this crap will be done soon.

Yes SIr...everything we could ride a motorcycle on we hit it. Cape Breton was just above freezing and rain in July but that was the only weather we could complain about. We stayed in B&B's except for Halifax. Ya never know... I'd almost make the trip for PEI mussels and all the chowders. soups and fresh seafood and of course all the folks were very kind and helpful.

Stay warm and healthy and if you get out this way give me a hollar!!

I definitely will. And I’m sorry for the Cape Breton weather. End of July and first few weeks of August are usually hot. One of the best beaches in Nova Scotia, right across from PEI, is in Port Hood. My cottage is in Judique. Lobster season starts May. I always get a feed from my friend. Can’t get fresher.
I live in Halifax. I had my boat then. Too bad we didn’t know you then. Harbour cruise would have been great. 😊
I’m older now so I have warm clothes, not like when I was a kid.
I have a jacket that I can’t wear unless it’s. -20. And boots for -70c. I can go to sleep in a snow bank and be warm. 😊 Gotta have warm clothes. Learned a long time ago,
You can always take something off
But you can never put it on.

Today was the 103rd anniversary of the Halifax Explosion. Totally levelled Halifax. Two ships, one leaving, one entering the harbour hit, full of explosives for the war. Wasn’t a great time for Halifax.

What a terrible thing to happen.
We lived in AK and I flew for Cook Inlet Aviation and Civil Air Patrol as a mission pilot and instructor...still have the survival suit and -50F gear...just in case but a good bet I'll never need it in Idaho.
Sleep well!!
