Where the hell is Spring Options

[Curvie Roadlover]

Well, I've completed all my winter projects. I have bolted the engine lid back on the car. It was off all winter. It's off the jack stands and back on all fours. It starts with the first turn of the key and no longer drips oil. I wrapped up all the stuff Sunday night. By monday morning there was 3 inchs of new snow on the ground. That's not the worst part. The snow is just about gone. The worst part was there was a fresh dumping of salt on the roads, so now even though the temperatures are predicted to be in the upper 50's in the next couple of days, we still need about 4-5 good solid days of rain before it's driving season. What will really suck is if it warms up to the 70's with clear blue skys before the salt gets washed away. It would be like being in the desert with an Ice cold drink in your hand that you can't drink. END OF RANT (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hanged.gif)

Mark & Curvie. Have you ever lived anywhere else?
I know, if there's family involved it's hard to go elsewhere and, even if it's only beautiful 75% of the time winter is easy to put up with. Whilst in North Dakota for 6 years, I swear, winter was 6 mos. of the time! I felt the same way. So I moved back (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

This year winter came very early and is leaving very very late. I can usually drive till the end of November and start back up the first of April. Like you say it is beautiful 75% of the time here and winter is usually easy to put up with, it's just this year it's working out to be 50-50.

Family would be the number #1 reason not to move. But really it's a good life here, it's just this winter that sucks. I stayed in Florida for a couple of months, it was OK but most definitely not home.

For us Canadians bitching about the weather is a national pastime. In a couple of months I'll be whining about it being too hot!
