"God puts his snow there every winter and takes it away every summer just be paishent or retire and spend 6 months at Home and 6 months in AZ or Florida."
Wow! One of the most bizarre things I have read in a long time! This is just messed up on so many levels it boggles the mind! Thinking like this is the reason we're up to our eyeballs in the septic tank!

That's pretty much it. We all blame the country upstream for the weather. I think it's an international law to do so.

Spent 3 years, 3 months, 20 1/2 days but who was counting, stationed at K.I Sawyer AFB MI. 410th AMMS 65-68. One time there was a snow storm that made a snow drift that was around the back, side and half the front of the barracks level with the 3rd floor fire escape. That Storm Closed a SAC base, couldn't plow the 12000 ft runway ... No diesel fuel. We could get to the BX for BEER. we had a 3 day drunk
p.s. there were reports of at least snow Flurry's every month I was there, even in July and August.
Heck we had an EF 0 Tornado in Down Town Mesa AZ Saturday ... 1-2" of rain first in 70 days in Phoenix.

HoundDog.... I grew up 100 miles west of KI Sawyer and I remember that winter. I was 13 and the road commission asked us kids to find street signs and shovel them out. (Some were marked with sticks that extended their height but even those were buried.) Some roads would drift over with 8 feet of snow overnight, and I remember shoveling 18 inches of snow many mornings. Doesn't look like you made if very far from the U.P. though!

It will be over soon! It's almost March. Our weather here has looked like this since about October.

Rc helicopter is becoming one of the more popular child toys that hit and hit big. Their popularity is not surprising at all. Imagine fulfilling your desire flying a plane without spending an excessive amount of. Esky

I've found that one of those 2 - 3 channel $20 micro helicopters with infra-red transmitter does remove the edge of winter on a cold wind blown day by flying indoors. Kind of fun to learn to control and hover, take off from coffee table and land on nearby table.
Yep a long winter so I bought the Helimax 1Si been flying it at work and even tried it outside. Don't let the battery run out over the snow had to dig it out he he he thought I might have damaged the unit or the camera but everything seems ok. Neat way to pass the time.
