Dang! All the fuss when it starts getting cooler... What do you folks do when it actually gets cold?  :D

pretty much the same thing. 

wear full garb without sweating like crazy, have a light jacket on when its not faire time, laugh maniacally as the fireplace cracks and pops and burns.  scrap ice off car, shake fist at sky for being sooooo gray alll the darn time.  clutch in and out and in, shift to first, clutch out and in and THEN shift to reverse.... i guess my car's transmission doesnt like the cold trying to shift into reverse first wont work, gets stuck. I guess life's lesson is dont begin by putting the stick in rear gear.


ok so a few differences. 

im glad its not texas where they have 2 seasons, forest fire and summer.

Me too (I'm in Arkansas). We usually have the same weather as the D/FW area. We didn't have it quite as bad as that this year.

Here in Minnesnowta, we have 3 seasons: highway/road construction, winter, and pothole repair. It gets kind of confussing because a lot of the time pothole repair becomes road construction. ;D

Note to Nissa: I was out at fest on the opening weekend(we talked about the monopod and camera I was using) and will be returning tomorrow(17th). Just a warning :D

Nah, the two seasons are snow construction and road removal.

Yeah Western Pennsylvania has the same three seasons. Love how every spring the repair the same potholes with that black tarry gravel crap, and all the new ones, then each winter they plow them out on accident. It's such a cycle that never breaks!!!!!

Stay warm all of you! It looks cold out there *as she curls up under extra blankets with the furnace on in her warm cozy house*

winter is good for pothole repair, all the snow and ice fills 'em in good.
it's the salt and thaw that kills roads.

We opted out today, as much as both the Earl and I were all set to go. It's hard to have fun when it's rainy, wet, and chilly. The mud adn gunk is not fun at all.

We will be there closing weekend, rain or shine.
