Re: Yipee!!!

I thought about you Ladyfish today when I saw a Texas Parks and Wildlife video article on the efforts to rebuild the productive marsh land in Galveston Bays. What I saw looked to be West Bay. Impressive efforts by TPW and Galveston. Nice place to be located.

Re: Yipee!!!

I really am envious of the snow - I love it! But today was a "slower day" here at the Training Centre and I had a brief time where I could sit on the balcony, sip some raspberry iced tea, and enjoy watching the waves come in (as I sweat profusely). It was a beautiful picture, but give me the snow and the cold!<br /><br />Meanwhile, back home:<br />125 PM EST SUN JAN 25 2004<br /><br />...WINTER STORM OUTLOOK...<br /><br />CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA WILL EXPERIENCE A VARIETY OF WINTER WEATHER CONDITIONS OVER THE NEXT 48 TO 64 HOURS...CULMINATING IN ADDITIONAL SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. THE TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY SNOWFALL WILL BE THE THIRD PHASE OF A LARGE AND COMPLEX WINTER STORM TO AFFECT THE AREA SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY. <br /><br />PERIODS OF SNOW SUNDAY NIGHT WILL TRANSITION TO PATCHY LIGHT MIXED PRECIPITATION OR FREEZING DRIZZLE MONDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON. PRECIPITATION IS THEN EXPECTED TO REINTENSIFY AND CHANGE BACK TO SNOW OVER MUCH OF CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA LATE TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT ... WITH ADDITIONAL SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS POSSIBLE TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY.<br /><br />CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIANS SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR A LONG DURATION WINTER PRECIPITATION EVENT BEGINNING TONIGHT...CAPPED OFF BY THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERAL INCHES OF ADDITIONAL SNOWFALL TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY.

I'd much rather the snowfall than the aweful unseasonable frigid temps we've been having here the last 3 weeks! Like Mayfloat, I have to work out in it most of the day! But I would still rather the cold over the 95 degree hot and humid days in July and August.

Re: Yipee!!!

You got that right Ralph! I dont mind working up in the North Shore area on those hot humid days...in Marblehead or Nahant..always try to have lunch near the water and watch those "birds" on roller blades, wearing bikini's?... :) Unfortunately, I keep my boat on the lake in New Hampshire during the summer months, so I dont put it in around this area -- except after labor day when I bring it home, maybe a few times in local lakes. Wife wants me to take it to The Cape, and go over to the Vineyard one of these days.

Re: Yipee!!!

Well I will have to say that I like it right where I am.<br />The winters are not to bad with temps not dropping below 9 very often.<br />Mostly teen's to upper 20's for over night lows.<br />The summers can get a little humid, but not unbearable.<br />I can fish right up through October if I want and be back out in early March, or go on south a little and fish right up through December at Dale Hollow or Lake Cumberland.<br />So like I said, I like it just fine where I am.

It finally quit snowing this morn at 7am, 15" total. Went out and got the drive open...what a beutiful morning. The kids didn't even get a snow day out of it.<br /><br />I know you folks in the south wouldn't understand but it is magical, quiet and unbeleviably pretty... even after opening the drive.<br /><br />Have a GREAT DAY!!!
