global warming my butt

[Plymouthy Adams]

the snow I posted was only half of what we got total...today we still have a significant amount on the ground but the roof, especially that what faces the sun, is mostly gone now.....the roads are clear and for dry pretty much now.   Short lived, we did not bust mid 30's yesterday but today's heatwave of 41 has us all back in shorts and flip flops

Not wanting to go all green and tree hugger, but 10 years ago we would have racing on the ice of several regional lakes with ice thickness of 12 to 18 inches starting around the third weekend of Jan.  Now the smaller lakes are just skimming over and the two largest are still mostly open water.  If I wanted to go racing this weekend I would to travel  to small lakes near Lake Placid near the winter Olympics training ffacilities.as of now they are not announcing a location for Saturday and Sunday.  So despite the cold weather, climate vlimate is warming.  This has been the case for at l4ast 6 or 8 years.  And prior to that it was slush racing on a plowed course wouldn't hold up for 2 days of racing,

hybrid sport on the horizon, combined auto and sail.....watertight chassis/bodies with outriggers and sails...sails down for solid surface, outriggers for faster cornering both surfaces...sail up for splish splashing about.

 

we are not evolving....we are revolving....

Now you are thinking like a Minnesotan!

Our streets are mostly dry and white, with a hefty layer of salt and snow that is covering all that is not pavement. I take comfort today in knowing I don't have to go to work.
