We just had our first brush with winter weather. A local newspaper reporter is a transplant from California. He wrote in a column that Kansas has four seasons. Ice rut season, tornado season, hotter than hell season, and October.
I'd say that's a fairly accurate assessment.  ;D

Here in Missouri it's Rabbit season, too cold but fish anyway season, fish season, deer season, repeat.

I remember that scene from Fargo at the end. To me it almost looked like a white out; as she is driving and chastising her prisoner she says "and it's a beautiful day".

My son in law just got stationed in Minot after spending 8 years in Alaska. The grandsons said they were glad they moved somewhere cold. Warm weather makes them melt.  ;)

I-75 is ALWAYS under construction.

Don't knock construction season. Those are "shovel ready" jobs boys! All that taxpayer money hard at work creating jobs and saving the economy.

Have you driven I-69 this year? The construction is continuous from Lansing to I-94.

I didn't know there was anything in Flint worth driving to.

A guy I used to work with plays drums for Chrome Mollie. They're playing there (kind of a reunion gig since they don't play anymore) this Friday.
