Ditto here too. 50 miles S.W. of Chicago here and we got flooded out BIG TIME! I just really hope I get my bike up and running and that I can ride it a little bit before I get released to go back to work. Being off like this REALLY has retiring looking pretty damn good at this point.

On a positive note I did get the cams installed yesterday.

I can tell you from experience, retirement is NOT overrated...

Well guys....

Just got home from work and watched the weather. We here in MN are expecting another 6-10" of snow by tomorrow morning. Again, the 15" we got Thursday into Friday has melted to the grass in most spots... Only to be covered again by snow today.

Seems that winter just does not want to let go. Most of our lakes still have 30+ inches of ice on them. It does not look good for opening fishing on May 4th.. At least not if you plan on getting your boat out in the lake. This could be the year where people are out ice fishing for opener!

The Dark Knight is still in the garage, awaiting it's second unveil of the year...

WOW!!!! That really sucks!

Just to the east of you, we are finally expecting NORMAL weather (low to mid 50s), and I'm super excited by that!
