Can it actually be TRUE?

? Weather liar said +8°C today and 14°C tomorrow!!! I dunno if I should believe it or not but the temp has risen 3 degrees celcius in the last hour and a half. They've issued flood warnings and ice jam warnings this morning. Cross your fingers!!!!!!!!!!

I really hope they are right so I can actually open the people door on the barn instead of having to stuff hay through a small opening. I think Rambo would be MUCH happier if I could just toss the hay in rather than stuffing it through between the door and the frame because the door is frozen open and blocked with bungee cords........talk about a redneck solution!!!ROFL At least the cats are happy with the redneck door fastening as they dont have towallow through snow and crawl under the still frozen big door - they can just bop in and out of there without any trouble.

Does anyone have any idea how long it takes to stuff 30ish pounds of hay through an opening that is maybe a foot wide by 7' tall? It takes almost half an hour.........5 minutes to peel hay off the bale and a couple more to toss it to the door, and stuffing it through is really tedious.

C'mon warm weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If a synchronised swimmer drowns, do they all have to drown?

warm weather isn't here in Michigan. We had snow yesterday. it is cold today and the flood warnings are here. Farrier came this morning and I was ready. Wearing my carhart bibs and gloves and hat. The wind is what is hurting so bad right now. sun is shining but it is cold.

Always remember that no matter where you go.........there you are

Can't say warm, but not a bad day here at all. Hell, it didn't rain and that's a plus all by itself.
We broke all kinds of records for rain, colder then normal, etc. this month. Again, today not too bad and this weekend supposed to be pretty good 60's F Saturday and 70's F Sunday, no rain forecast. Though that means I should probably find time to mow the lawn that is looking ready for baling.

So get out there with your blow driers and melt that snow already!

All that whitecrap sure reflects the sun back but there are tiny bits of dirt showing now.

But that 'light breeze' blows me off my feet. Who'd live on the top of a hill .. oh, yes. Still, the sunshine is nice, it melts the snow.

;D

It's been lovely here!
I rode in a short-sleeve shirt today!
Green grass for Charm to DIVE to during our hacks
Flowers! (forsythia, tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, dogwoods, magnolia...)

And, of course...

the first black flies of the year.

Still. The sunshine feels good, and makes for a mellow horse!
