All you folks in and around the mid-Atlantic storm area (Cliff, Al, Mike, etc.), looks like a good weekend to stay home, light a fire, pour a drink, and strum some strings. Don't bother shoveling until the storm passes. Here in Colorado, I rode a motorcycle to work today and my buddies and I have a ride planned tomorrow. I guess somebody has to have clear and dry weather.

We just got brushed by the western edge of it. We only got about four inches and it's already melting. Hope all of you on the East coast stay safe and warm.

That's exactly what I am planning, Professor!

I'm on the northern edge of the storm though so only expecting 6 inches. A drop in the pan compared to our brothers and sisters south of me.

Stay safe folks!

I miss all those good snowstorms that I enjoyed when I was young living back east.
Seems to me that we had bigger storms in the 60's and 70's...
And we didn't complain about them nearly as much. :p

I hope y'all take this opportunity to relax and take it easy.

I'm further north than all y'all and I am mad at myself that I didn't take a guitar outside today.

It's supposed to get down to the 50's here, but I doubt it. I'm still going to stay inside and play my Hamer. :D

Like Iffy said, stay warm, think warm thoughts, and be safe.

30 degrees here in Germany. One of the snowiest winters in ages. But today the snow in my garden started to melt and reveiled some juicy green gras underneath. Oh Spring you are so welcome, I can't wait to put my garden furniture out again and enjoy some strummin in the sun with some steaks on the Weber and a Beer infront of me.

Yeah, you guys are having all the fun.

Kinda crappy here too. Just about to tee off and looks like I might have to wear the sweater vest for the first couple of holes.

53 yesterday and maybe 58 today. I was going to wait to play golf till tomorrow during the Superbowl, but there's a tournament. I may play 9 today and see if I can beat the temperature. That means I better wait until it warms up fully.

Of course, you were much shorter then so the snow seemed deeper.....and it meant a day off school. ;)

Naw... Just meant that the school bus didn't run.
If you lived within a mile of school they expected you to walk!

We were of heartier stock back before video games.

looks like we'll top-out at about 30+" as the snow has slowed. I have to snowshoe the length of the drive to my car parked out near the road.
Still absolutely beautiful. And I don't have to wear a sweater vest.
