Pro  4541    A farming town in MN |  Subject: RE: Whine about the weather threadBikerGrrrl - 2010-02-08 9:59 AM Out of sight, but NOt out of mind. Still hate this weather. Today was a record drive to work for me. It took me 2 hours to drive 18 miles! I actually had to stop partway for a potty break, I was in the car for too long and hadn't planned for that. I need a new job closer to home... 2 hours and 25 minutes for me (30 miles)...if I were smart, I should've just called the boss and asked if I could work from home today...  |

Master 2802 Minnetonka, Minnesota | Subject: RE: Whine about the weather thread I do work close to home and thank my lucky-stars on days like today. On the positive side of the weather thread, our family went to the City of Lakes Loppet on Sat. night and we walked the 2.5 mile Lake of the Isles Luminary Loppet. It was absolutely beautiful and we had a great time. Check out the photo gallery on their site: http://www.cityoflakesloppet.com/index.php?option=com_rsgallery2&Itemid=23&gid=5ake We also saw some of the skijoring on Sat. afrernoon with all the great dogs, very cool, and I highly recommend the event! Take that Florida! |

Expert 2189 Dodge County, MN (out in the corn) | Subject: RE: Whine about the weather thread Just got word that we will NOT be dismissing early. I have a 25 mile drive home. MNDOT advises no travel. Hopefully there will be fewer cars on the road. FML. If you don't hear from me tonight, I'm in a ditch somewhere. FML again. |

Extreme Veteran 605 | Subject: RE: Whine about the weather thread I know its Minnesota and it's still Feb, but I want the snow gone. I have had enough. I want it warm, I want to go out and ride my bike. I'm tired of shoveling tons of snow off my driveway. I have no where left to put it. My mail box has been reduced to a hole in the snow bank. The banks on my driveway are shoulder high. Blah. (thanks for listening I'm done now.) |

Champion 10020 , Minnesota Bronze member | Subject: RE: Whine about the weather thread Agreed! I was marveling at the snow drifts this morning. I tried to take a pic with my phone, but it didn't do it justice. I can't see around many corners in my 'hood, makes driving interesting.

Elite 2515 Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea | Subject: RE: Whine about the weather thread This flocking snow!!! Not only have I had to clear the bottom of my driveway FOUR times in the last two days since the plow left behind huge chunks of ice that my snow thrower doesn't like, we are now the proud owners of leakage into our house due to an ice dam. DAMN DAM!!! Thank goodness our homeowner's insurance covers it (less the $1K deductible). ::sigh:: |

Master 2802 Minnetonka, Minnesota | Subject: RE: Whine about the weather thread It ended up being a nice late afternoon/evening, if a bit cold. I waited to run unitl like 5:00 and it paid off as I had a really nice run. It is crappy that March has been better than May so far.... Going to ride tomorrow, so hopefully it will be decent. |
