Winter is still here....

The Jetta under cover....

Back from the store....

Scootin' through the snow....

The Blazer covered with ice....

Rainbow Drive....

The bird house....

It's done dropping freezing rain on us and has started snowing. Typical Iowa late winter weather.

Eric and Nikki were by with the boys this morning and called about a half hour after they'd left asking to come back and spend the night here. Apparently the ice has taken down some power lines and poles up near Readlyn and they had no power. It seems that it got cold and dark in their house and they wanted someplace warm to stay so they drove back. I had to run up to Hy Vee to grab a gallon of milk a little while ago, which required about a half hour of scraping on the Blazer just to get the ice off the windshield, the 2 side windows, and one mirror. Sweet! The roads suck right now, by the way.

The early forecast was for about 12" of snow but it has since been changed to about 6" for tonight and another 3" for tomorrow. They are calling for 13 to 20 inches up in The Cities. Doesn't make it much easier here.... Ha! Just a reminder that it could be worse, I guess.

It looks like Jackal has his new Carbon Rush race bike built up now. The pics look pretty sweet! Go check them out! If you look real close you can see Bob and Doug McKenzie in one of those pics. It looks like a lot of new things have been happening in Kerkove's world too..... Take note that he has a new web address. www.jeffkerkove.net .

That's it for now.

Ride safe.

Peace out, yo!
