Gary:

Know how you feel , man. Still sunny but 24 degrees this AM. Took my mom to breakfast today in the 965.

Glad I don't have to help shovel your driveway! LOL

It's been lightly snowing most of the day here in Boston but no significant accumulation. I am glad however that I put the cold weather tires on last week.

In the upper 40s here in the Rockies, Sunny blue skies, and the only snow is on the mountain tops and ski runs.

You east coasters need to move to a better climate

Some of us truly enjoy having 4 seasons. I don't think I would enjoy living somewhere without a winter. Hell, my wife and I often talk about moving to Vermont!

They weren't very hardy and perished.

We felt guilty.

I'm not sure. I know the molds are for sale, but so far no buyers. I checked the IIRA (MN Ice racing org) site, they said as of 9/18 they will have tires.

Bone chilling 60's in Central FL, I am so thankful we have a fireplace which feels great after leaving my shop getting ready for the 09 kick-off: PBIR and Sebring in Jan.

Cheers
