I'm off to do some Xcountry skiing, bringing the snowshoes also. See you all later.” 6:24:01 AM 2/08/03 “It looks just a little on the grey side and mid-30s. I'm thinking of taking the weasel out to the lake today so she can run around (no diapers, Thank G-d... she hits the newspaper in the corner about 65% of the time, <G>).” 6:43:21 AM 2/08/03 “I didnt oversleep. I was dutifully here at 3 am as usual.” 7:31:01 AM 2/08/03 “27 here in town, snow showers forecast today. Picking up another Alaskan at the airport this morning, then heading for the Sangre de Christo mountains. The Alaskans are going down hill skiing, I'm going to XC ski or snowshoe. Looks like I'll get a bag night, not enough beds in the camper for all.” 7:34:15 AM 2/08/03 “12:45 am here and I'm supposed to be up and out at 6 am. Yeah, right! Good morning all! The setting moon is beautiful!” 11:45:01 PM 2/08/03 “Well the weekends over and the boss will soon be here :{ WHAT?!” 3:04:35 AM 2/10/03 “What the hell am I doing awake at this ungodly hour? LOL” 3:19:04 AM 2/10/03 “Morning folks..coffee is on..is colder than blue blazes outside!!! Bundle up and have a good day.” 6:11:20 AM 2/10/03 “morning! cold here this morning. Got a sick kid at home and i am not in a good mood. Coffeeeeee, where is the coffeeeee....” 5:39:16 AM 2/11/03 “AAAaahhh...Sorry to hear about the kiddo Gem. I had one home yesterday. Hope you don't get it! Here...have a cup of my coffee. Have a good day! Dee” 5:57:26 AM 2/11/03 “Five below and howling winds. Forecast calls for the deep freeze for the rest of the week. Feel better about it all with a cuppa joe in my hand. Off to work.” 6:03:30 AM 2/11/03 “There's a lot of sickness going through the schools here. My nephew came home with the flu yesterday.” 6:05:46 AM 2/11/03 “Hundreds of children, at each school, are staying home, ill in our area. It's getting really bad. I can't believe our family isn't down with it too, for once! Gem, I hope your little one feels better soon.” 6:42:20 AM 2/11/03 “I gotta sick kid home today too. Oh well, maybe I'll get some chores done around the house. :)” 7:10:50 AM 2/11/03 “We had a genuine flu outbreak here a couple of weeks ago. Two middle schools in the next county had absentee rates of 25-28%.” 7:14:50 AM 2/11/03 Yuk! “Sorry to hear about all the flu! Really cold here in Chicago. Walked the dog this morning just about froze my face off!” 8:30:11 AM 2/11/03 “morning.” 6:11:32 AM 2/13/03 “uh oh. It's the blinding eye in the sky. Terminal light pollution.” 6:27:19 AM 2/13/03 “18 degrees here. This sure has been one nutty winter!” 6:27:56 AM 2/13/03 “Rain, Rain, we need this rain. May get half an inch today, with several inches of snow above 8,000 ft.” 6:49:36 AM 2/13/03 “8 degrees here. Headed to Maine for the long weekend. It is 0 there.” 6:53:06 AM 2/13/03 “We have 12 degrees here. Yesterday was really windy and cold. Today isn't windy, but still cold. Only 8 more weeks until the opening day of trout season and this year the creeks should be running well with all the snow we had this winter.” 6:54:33 AM 2/13/03 “More snow coming this weekend, too. It has been very windy and cold here too. Time for decaf and getting the kids out the door.” 7:00:29 AM 2/13/03 “I saw that 1 to 3 inches on Saturday with maybe more on Sunday depending on if that storm is able to move north a bit more. More snow for great snowpack this year that's already 15 inches to 2 feet.” 7:09:13 AM 2/13/03 “Good morning everyone! Time for bed! Ta!” 12:39:06 AM 2/15/03 “well Ive earned my keep for the day...” 5:36:21 AM 2/15/03 “Well good morning.A cold 35 degree rain here this morning. The good news is I got my computer fixed so I've got TT at home now. WooooHooo! Ouch! thathurt. Little too much celebrating for Valentines Day last night.” 7:13:58 AM 2/15/03 Morning “A floating leaf took refuge on a jutting rock, a waterbug flitted by rippling the reflected clouds, as I sat in azure peace above the surface penetrating the morning haze, harking into darkness of a raw future. I breathed the moist resiliance and darted beyond the stone wall to a flower leaning out across the walk, and slipped from its dewy petals into the day which seemed to need me. My father wrote that one--” 8:01:24 AM 2/15/03 “That's a good one Indiana John.” 8:05:08 AM 2/15/03 “Here Comes That Rainy Day Feelin' Again...  ”3:40:50 AM 2/16/03 “I think that's the storm that's supposed to give us a foot of snow Monday.” 5:27:12 AM 2/16/03 “Here it comes... <G>” 5:35:00 AM 2/16/03 “Bring it on, more snow to ski and snowshoe on. This is the best winter we've had in many years.” 5:39:53 AM 2/16/03 “Our drought is definitely slackening. We've actually gotten some rain in the last few months and the reservoirs are almost back up to full pool. It's still not looking good out west, tho'.” 6:05:34 AM 2/16/03 6:17:06 AM 2/16/03 “We had a drought last year and the year before, but the rainy fall and this winter heavy snows turned it around. The fishing should be great this spring with all the ground water back to normal. It should keep the creeks running good.” 6:30:00 AM 2/16/03 “That was weird. It seems that all the data those folks collect is for the western states only. I found more nationwide coverage here.” 6:31:21 AM 2/16/03 “Does this look right, based on local obervations? <G>  (and I quote...) "Snow measurements across some regions may have great spatial variability. Data included in these products are point measurements and are representative of conditions at that specific location."” 6:39:12 AM 2/16/03 6:41:52 AM 2/16/03 “It about right on in the cities around here, but the mountains have much more than they post on the snow pack map.” 6:58:57 AM 2/16/03 “Good morning. We got an inch of ice last night. Heard they got alot more up north.” 7:30:27 AM 2/16/03 “Indiana John - Thanks for sharing your father's poem. I enjoyed reading it.” 7:33:36 AM 2/16/03 “Recent snows and rain have lessened the fire danger in NM, but have not come close to ending the drought.” 8:13:13 AM 2/16/03 “Yes... it's the fire danger out west this Summer I'm thinking about.” 8:23:29 AM 2/16/03 “Wow! It's snowing like crazy outside and we're supposed to get 16 inches of snow by Tuesday morning. Anybody else getting blasted with this storm?” 6:49:30 AM 2/17/03 “Forecast here is for 20-30 inches and blizzard conditions.” 6:53:07 AM 2/17/03 “It probably makes you wish you had your new snowshoes. With that much snow you'd need them to go anywhere.” 7:09:47 AM 2/17/03 Get up! “Y'all are sleeping too late today. Rouse, rouse!” 6:03:27 AM 2/21/03 “I've been up since 5:30! :-)” 6:11:33 AM 2/21/03 “With warm temperatures a lot of rain coming tomorrow it sounds like we are going to lose a lot of the snowpack. Quite a bit melted yesterday with the strong sun.” 6:21:05 AM 2/21/03 Jump to Page << prev
