    It's going to snow here tomorrow!

    Well I really hope that this early storm is not an indication of what we have to look forward to this year. The last few years seem to be getting worse and worse. only time will tell though.. I hope that everyone stays safe during any of this type of weather. Mike O yeah and NICE pictures.
