I can't remember the last time I put a coat on to get stuff from the garage....but there is hope!

It's going to be 50 this Saturday but then it will be cold again.....

1st day of spring is 51 days away....

Time change day is 39 days away...

Most pitchers and catchers start reporting in on Feb. 13-15 (some as early as Feb. 6)....this was always how I got through winter as a kid playing ball.

I just came in from a 40min walk. Get up and get out and you will feel better. We have been working outside this year. As long as the wind isnt howling, it is tolerable

Saltmaggedon is the name of the assault on our highways. One foot high drifts of salt that will run into our streams and rivers. They will forever change the salinity of local fishing spots..  beware of bluefish in your local streams.

That first pic reminds me of the drive back from the Gator Bowl in 2002.  An ice storm hit just as we were crossing the Florida line into Georgia.  somewhere in GA it turned to heavy snow.  AM radio told us about traffic delays on 95 and that the great state of SC only has one snowplow in the entire state (not a joke...I'm dead serious) and it was located in the far west of the state.  By central NC I was stopping every 10 minutes to clear ice from the wipers.  The only pair of gloves I packed got soaked and my fingers stayed numb for hours.  The drive from Jacksonville to Northern VA usually takes about 11 hours depending on stops and speed.  That drive back for us took 22 hours.  I was literally hallucinating by the time I got back.  When I'd close my eyes I could still see snow flying past me...much like the old Windows screen saver from the mid 1990s or in Star Wars when the Millenium Falcon goes to warp speed and the stars whiz by.
