OK anythng go's here, but did I miss something

Mike,

If you missed it I did too. I received an e-mail from a friend in Maine yesterday showing a private collection of original Cobras, Shelby Mustangs and many great muscle cars but I don't remember posting the link. He would sell some of them but will only talk to people who contact him via phone and he doesn't advertise at all. But most he won't sell and they are really some prime examples of the 60s era cars.

Edit: Ok, it is a few pages back but I did post the link and that may be what Brent is referring to.

Correct. Unfortunately I am not as quick as any of my vehicles.

Your correct on all accounts. No waders needed

Ron,
Thanks for the update on the post I missed.

[Ron61]

Mike,

I wouldn't have known about it if a friend who lives back near there hadn't sent me an e-mail with the link. He is thinking about calling the guy and trying to make an appointment to go see the cars. Wish I could afford a collection like that.

Sorry I'm late, what did I miss??

I wrote a couple of pages in the new book.

Turkmenistan...is that a country that is US friendly????

[Ron61]

Tru,

Turkmenistan...is that a country that is US friendly????

I guess that since it your country you can make it any way you want it. That sounds like a mixture of Turkey and Germany. Hope the new book comes along well.

Monday again and another week of going to the eye doctor. Just this Wednesday and next Monday will be the last trips for this eye and then they can start on the other one.

We did have some light showers yesterday which were nice as they soaked all of the pollen that was laying on the grass down so it isn't blowing all over. They say there is a slight chance of scattered showers today.

Ron

[trularin]

Good morning. It is raining and 45 outside.

I tilled, so therefore it shall rain.

Does anyone really want to do the job they do? I don't mind mine, but I would rather be retired with a small list each day of things I want to get done.

Hmmm......

[Ron61]

We had hard pouring rain yesterday with thunder and hail. It is clear this morning and supposed to be in the upper 70s this afternoon.

Ron

[Joe Wicked]

Just muggy here. Pretty high humidity, but not much in the forecast for rain today or tomorrow, but good chance for tomorrow night. The spring storms were plentiful but mild so far this year. I know some others were not so lucky not too far away (OK, Kansas, and others). Starting to feel like the shift to summer though with the humidity.

[Ron61]

I just saw out weather forecast and we are heading for the 90s soon if they are correct. It was 38 last night and is supposed to be 79 this afternoon.

Ron

[Joe Wicked]

Officially we hit 89 the other day right before this cold front came through with all the moisture. I am sure by next week we will be right there with you Ron.

[Ron61]

Joe,

These radical changes in the weather are getting to be the norm around here this last year. It is also starting to get humid as the sun heats up all of the wet grass.

Ron ... please turn your Al Gore/Global warming membership card in ! You`ve got it all wrong . The grass isn`t wet ! The grass is growing because of the increased CO2 in the air from Ernie`s car . The humidity/moisture is caused by the grass sweating because it heard no one believed in Global warming anymore and because of all the CO2 blanketing it from your mower and Ernie`s car ( don`t confuse me with any facts here ) .

Bob

[Ibr8k4vetts]

We had the coldest April I can remember and May is not looking any better...On the news today they said there was SNOW on the Grapevine today!...Good old Al Gore we just say it's part of Global Warming! Please just shoot me.

Bob,

We had snow on the small hills just past the dam and it was 37 last night and is supposed to be 76 this afternoon. The weekend is heading for the 90s. The humidity according to the weather map here yesterday made a heat index of 88. I am not mowing my weeds now as I have to wait for the eye to completely heal.

Mike,

This has been a weird April and so far May for us also. Last year at this time we were having a few triple digit days and it sure wasn't frosting at night.

Ron

[trularin]

Morning, yes, it has been a chilly spring.

My plants are still in the seed barn. we will probably plant later this year as it has frosted once a week for the past three weeks.

I would like to be able to drive the cobra sometime in the next month, but it is going to have to get warmer.

[Bobcat]

Know what you mean about weird weather . We had lows in the low 40`s and upper 30`s early this week and now are back in the 90`s and high humidity . We have been either above or below normal most of this Spring .
