Last Monday it was a little chilly here, 24 degrees. Not as cold as it can get but lower than normal. Sunday it was 70 degrees  Just right to take the cars out for lunch. I sure feel sorry for you northerners and your winter weather. Mike

AZ is nice, I did live there for a while way back when, but central Calif. was nice yesterday too! We had a good rain Sun. night that blew all the crud out of the air. This photo was taken yesterday by my cousin, great view, wish it was this clear every day.

Until the economy and my health went south I had plans to retire there. I have a couple of rentals in Kingman Az that I had planned to sell when the time was right and buy a big garage with a house attached. Now I'm hoping I don't go broke. I haven't given up yet but it's not looking too good.

You guys got it too easy- it's dark out here by 5:00 pm. Last night it got down to 15 degrees while the wind howled. No problems here though- the wood stove chased away the cold while in the basement I continued to rebuilt a pair of old balloon tire Columbia bicycles in anticipation of next spring.  /Duck

One great advantage to the winters you guys in the mid-west and back east have, you can concentrate on little projects that wouldn't get done if you were out running around enjoying the sunny weather.

Beautiful Vickie, I really like the looks of the '56's. I've been in Northern AZ in the winter. It will get real cold there, just wait. Flagstaff would be my choice, I love the scenery, and the mountains.

I drive to Flagstaff every day for work. The day it was 22 here it was -3 there. I lived there for 37 years, like the warmth a lot better.

Drove into Flagstaff one time in late May. Didn't bring warm clothes or a jacket. It was below freezing and so was I!  Chuck in NH

Just came home from work where it was 32 and snowing. Ten miles from home it switched to rain and 45. We have had an inch of rain today, sure beats the alternative.

A week ago we took out the 56 Customline to Culvers for the weekly cruise night. Weather was great. Probably about 55 degrees and clear as a bell. This is in Colorado Springs, and it has been really dry this winter. Only two snows so far and each time a very small amount. The snow is completely gone the next day. Yesterday we had winds that gusted up to 83 MPH!! Blew over a Safeway semi truck, broke windows, and blew over fences and damaged roofs. The 56 Customline was safely locked up in the garage. I pity you guys in the midwest and the east coast. Andy of Mayberry in Colorado

Frank,
I first have to figure out how to post pics here!!! LOL
Well just to make you happy the snowmobilers have already been drag racing across the lake! They are wild to watch, most will do 12's right out of the box!
Unfortunately last year an off duty cop died out on the lake. He was clocking his buddy with his radar gun. Turns out alcohol was involved (go figure!) and the buddy hit the cop at over 140mph!
