All of our snow is almost gone!

Apparently is has all turned into water and has joined up with the snow from the backyard to have a party in the basement.


/runs off to get the shopvac and mop.

Wow it's hot today, snow is melting. Think almost all the ice on my car is melted, I scraped off the remainder. The wiper part is tricky though so there's still some in there.

It's like +2. That's the crappy type of weather though, it gets all slushy and wet. But it only gets worse once it freezes. Highway speed skating FTW.

God, I hate Adobe Premiere Pro... It never encodes or accepts the right formats. (What my camera uses or FRAPS.. Fails at both terribly, kept encoding my videos at like 160x120 when I told it to do 320x240... Seriously it said in the thing, "320x240" as the resolution and I would play back the file and it would end up being like 160x120! What the hell?!) Anyway, windows movie maker pulled through for me. :)

I wish it would snow here. We haven't had more than a couple inches for years. Only a dusting so far this year.

Today is the first day it might get to 30 in about two weeks, so our snow may actually soften some. here are a couple though. i think we are going o have a warm streak over the next week.

I left the car out so i could work on the atv. mistake.

Please do a direct link to the image next time. I don't know why, but every time someone links to that it never loads for me. :( It's the one that they say you shouldn't link to on forums ;)

One legged cat? o_O

They are offset so it looks right to me. ;)

i didn't go looking for the cat, so i figure it was healthy. at first i thought i only had one cat, then i went to the back yard and saw this:

WTF???


they come by every few days. i have a motion sensitive flood light on the back of the house and around 3-4am it kicks on, but by the time i get to a window, there is nothing out there. during the day, all i get is deer and elk.
I have gotten lucky once while driving down the road from the house, and one crossed in front of me about 230am. i can honestly say i have never seen an animal move so fast and gracefully, and it's tell was soooo long. I need to put up a couple of game cameras to see if i can catch them.
