Apparently the 'hog saw his shadow and that means 6 more weeks of winter, but I am calling BS on that.

I was planning on winterizing the T/A and parking it from Dec-Mar but now it's looking like I shouldn't even bother. There's been very little salt on the roads and it's been mild. I've probably had 4 tanks of Sta-Bil through there now, each time thinking it would be sitting a while.

On top of that, some of the early spring bulbs I planted last year are coming out of the ground already. :shock:

So I'm guessing early spring. :nod:

They put down a boatload of salt each storm, but yes, for the most part the roads have been clear.

Up in Siberia where you are at, probably. Down here we got salted once a week or two ago and it was followed by two days of rain that washed it away.

He's wrong more than 2/3s of the time so It will probably be good weather.

^ I went drinking w/him last night...between the schnaps and whippets he did in back of 7/eleven i'm shocked he saw anything at all. Last i left him him he had his head stuck in a crown royal bag.

There was a thing on the radio saying that over the past 124 years (since TV camera, lights, etc invade his space) that there is no correlation between his results and what actually happened. As if that was in question. :lol:

This may be true haha.

I really do hate him. Out of the 116 years they have kept records of his predictions, he has only picked spring 16 times. If thats not a glass half empty guy, I don't know what is.

I am not sure how he sees his shadow on cloudy days, either.

Ah, outside influence.

So if I fire paintballs at him and he runs to his hole, 6 more weeks of winter. Got it.

Where do they sell fire paintballs? That could be of most entertainment.

I got my truck done and a good job that pays descent OT when it snows... no shot of it snowing. Kinda thankful though because I didn't get my CDL until the begging of winter so I had time to learn to drive before worrying about plowing.

Don't get too excited about this mild winter so far, the next few weeks are starting to look colder. We have to pay at some point in time, I just hope it isn't a cooler and wetter than normal spring.

Last year, I didn't put the plow on the Jeep due to ongoing suspension improvements. Snowed about a zillion times and spent February nursing a sore back. This year I said eff that and put the plow on. So for everyone enjoying the "mild" winter, you're welcome.
