Re: How's your weather?

For the first time it is actually cold here in Texas.....I couldn't go to the shop cause it was too cold. Nice pics though, I think that's my new desktop background.

Re: How's your weather?

Sunny here just about every day of the year. Been consistently in the mid 80's for the last 2-3 weeks but has cooled off slightly last few days into the upper 70's. Gotta love AZ weather at 4,000 feet, 4 mild seasons

Re: How's your weather?

I am definitely not excited for the cold and very wet fall, winter, and spring.
It hasn't rained here in WA for about 2 months. Yeah here and there a day of a little bit of srpinkling, but no rain. Very dry, lots of fires. The northwesterly winds have brought clear skys and cold air, but it still hits 70 in the daytime out here on Camano Island.

I know how you feel. Originally from Ohio. Winters were miserable and too much rain in the summer.

Move out here to be closer to wifes side of family where she is originally from (she hated weather back east by the way) and after being out here I wondered why I didn't come out here alot sooner

Re: How's your weather?

Me and my wife bought a place in SC a couple of years ago..If the economy did not tank the way it did, we probably could have retired in 10 years or so..but now..who nows how long. So we get out of here every couple of months. She would move there in a minute.

Sure am, Steve! A little cooler now, but still beautiful weather here in Tacoma.
I've been riding my mountain bike every day/evening. Last night on my ride I saw a deer. Saw another one in the same spot a few weeks ago too.
Headed out to work on my truck in a few.

Your blue truck looks a lot like my 76! What year is yours?

Both of these trucks are 1980.
