Nice... as I read this the sheriff’s office comes across the TV stating we are now under a level 1 snow emergency.
I'm not complaining though we were in KW just a few weeks ago.

I still think alot about the race boat days, when we were living the dream. Everyone here, has fond memories of those days.
Always good to hear from you.

No kid'in, this sux! I just walked out to the beach here on the lake about a half hour ago (dont ask me why) it is pure evil out there. Got my azz back in the house quick. Its blow'in pretty good and the snow stopped out here but i could see a band of snow over the western end of lake Erie, could see Monroe and Detroit glowing in it. Oh well . . . . head'in back to Fla on Thursday . . . screw this!

I talked to some family from down river (Riverview) earlier this evening and they were getting hit then. I tell you what it sure is nice here during the summer but man once this cold sh*t hits I'm all for the south!!
