Even without the rainbow, I love rural America :D (and probably rural everywhere else, too).

Now stop taking pictures and get that mirror fixed. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Too tired headed home from Christmas gatherings. Rather have sleep.

I take the country backroads whenever possible just for the scenery. I love being on the edge of the country. If I didn’t have to work I’d move further out.

The mirror is good, just water droplets.

We've just had 36 hours of rain in the middle of Summer.... 180mm+ of rainfall overnight, in a non-tropical area.

But hey, nobody's messing with the weather, right? ;)

Hope you're good, Toddster.... and that the storm doesn't unbury some of your 'secrets'... ;)

Maybe we'll continue to get rain and Australia will turn into a nice lush green country, and more than 20% of it would be habitable. I'd be happy with that. :lol:

It rained here constantly last year. Summer was a total washout as a result. 2023 actually went down as the 3rd wettest year in recorded history.

The last few winters have had reduced snowfall but when it does snow, it's much heavier due to having a higher moisture content. We got 12" of snow two days ago which was a miserable experience. I shoveled for 4 hours straight with no breaks, and each shovelful felt like it weighed 15lbs. You'll have to do your own conversions for those outside the States. :mrgreen:

17 hours into Deathstorm2024 and this, I haven't touched my driveway yet except for the tire tracks. I'm 60 miles straight east of Todd for reference. People were freaking and raiding the grocery stores and emptying shelves over the weekend for this supposedly brutal storm :lol: :lol:

Nothing like a little media beat-up fear-mongering.....

Seeing as you're close enough to the Toddmeister, maybe you should go to his place and throw rocks at his windows..... just to see if he's okay and all :lol: :lol: :lol:

Jerry,

Looks like we survived round 1 with more on the way tonight and tomorrow. Was kinda disappointed with all the hype it was getting. It definitely beats the 5-8inchs of "flurries " we got several years ago though.

Getting there myself...actually really been there for awhile now but can't get away from the shituation at the moment.
