I feel sorry for you warm climate types
« on: January 22, 2005, 12:11:12 pm »
Sure you can get in a hot tub and it feels good, but you can't shovel snow and ice on your driveway for two hours when the blower won't start and then get in your hot tub and talk to your neighbor just as he starts shoveling his.  "You missed a spot!"

Oh, another accesory for your tub, and eye cup for rinsing out your eyes. A big gust of wind got me as I was dumping in the MPS.  Rinsed right out, no long term problem.

Bill you are right it is tough being here in the Sunshine and 70's today.....In fact it is so bad that some of my friends drove 45 minutes up to the mountains to do some snow boarding while some other "poor saps" I know went down to the beach to do some surfing as some big waves are rolling in...it is a horrible situation to be.... ;)

Being a former Ohioan, I can sympathize with you Bill.

Hmmmm.... whatever possessed me to move to sunny Las Vegas?  

(oh yeah, that's right, I just have to read your email again... that answers it!  ;) )

Y'know what I really miss?  I really miss the times when I was using the snow thrower, and a gust of wind came along and blew the snow into my face.  Ah, a good cold *SMACK* right between the eyes.  Yeah,  I miss that... sure!   ;)

It's so humid down here in southwest Louisiana that there is no room in the air for the water to evaporate from the hot tub to, so it stays put.  ;)

Winter is finally here in the MPLS/St.Paul area.  We got about 6" of snow on Friday.  Despite my 3 hour commute home from work (usually less than 45 minutes), I am glad to see snow finally.  Top that off with a very rare power outage on Saturday, which was only for about an hour and didn't affect the spa.
Forcast for the next week is temps in the mid to upper 30's, so we should be in for some really nice spa temps.

I have mixed feelings.  I have lived in the Chicago area my whole life and agree that it is nice to sit in my hot tub when it is cold out.  But I must admit, when the wind is biting and I'm snow blowing my driveway for the 3rd time in one day.....  I do wonder why I am still here.

We only got about 3" out of that one ourselves, but last night's soak under clear skies at 4 degrees and no wind was great.

Ah Cleveland area got dumped on pretty good, 8-12 inches. Was fun tubbing in that.

WE got between 12 and 15 inches here in Philly and I made sure the first thing I dug out was the hot tub. ;)

It snowed the day before the game here in Pennsylvania.  
Super Bowl Predictions:
T.O. will be playing and the Eagles will be winning.  Any questions?  Didn’t think so…

If the Eagles are going to win the game they are going to have be able to do things that no other team has been able to do and that is beat Belichick after he has 2 weeks to get ready....is the Eagles offense better than the Rams were or the Colts....I don't see it....New England does not beat themselfs.....
