Weather

[John Bridge]

There is yet another Canadian plot afoot to ruin our nice weather. The cold front they deliberately sent through Colorado and other western states is arriving here this afternoon. Temps overnight are going to be way down to the mid-forties, and tomorrow's high is projected to be only seventy-two.

A winter statistic:
98% OF AMERICANS SCREAM BEFORE GOING IN THE DITCH ON A SLIPPERY ROAD.

THE OTHER 2% ARE FROM COLORADO AND THEY SAY,
"HOLD MY SODA AND WATCH THIS."

***********************************

Now, you're from Colorado if.........
You eat ice cream in the winter.

It snows 5 inches and you don't expect school to be cancelled.


You'll wear flip flops every day of the year,
regardless of temperature.


You have no accent at all, but can hear other people's.
And then you make fun of them.


"Humid" is over 25%.


Your sense of direction is: Toward the mountains and
Away from the mountains.


You say "the interstate" and everybody knows which one.

You think that May is a totally normal month for a blizzard.



You buy your flowers to set out on Mother's day, but try and
hold off planting them until just before Father's day.


You grew up planning your Halloween costumes around your coat.


You know what the Continental Divide is.


You don't think Coors beer is that big a deal.


You went to Casa Bonita as a kid, AND as an adult.



You've gone off-roading in a vehicle that was
never intended for such activities.


You always know the elevation of where you are.

You wake up to a beautiful, 80 degree day
and you wonder if it's gonna snow later.



You don't care that some company renamed it,
the Broncos still play at Mile High Stadium!!!


Every movie theater has military and student discounts.


You actually know that ** South Park ** is a real place,
not just a dumb show on TV.



You know what a 'trust fund hippy' is, and you
know its natural habitat is Boulder .



You know you're talking to a fellow Coloradoan when
they call it "Elitches," not ""Six Flags."



A bear on your front porch doesn't bother you.



Your two favorite teams are the Broncos and whoever
is beating the crap out of the Raiders.



When people back East tell you they have mountains
in their state too, you just laugh.



You go anywhere else on the planet and the air feels "sticky" and
you notice the sky is no longer blue.

If you are from Wisconsin, you would say hold my beer and hang on!

We seem to be in for the high eighties for the next few days at least, and probably from here on in. And that's very close to the nineties, and that ushers in the time for me to head north. So please, please, all you Ice Belt denizens, knock off with the snow, ice and other unpleasantness before I get there.

The funny thing Jeff is when Darcy was reading it to me out of email after every one she would say...OMG you have said that, or that is you Levi.

Been to Co. many times cause that's where the grandchildren are.

I wanted to move there but the other one didn't.

Then came a time when his condition ( ill health ) wouldn't accept the higher altitudes of Co. and we didn't move there.

It is a fascinating, beautiful state.

But now I'm in Fl. and am also enjoying it. I love warm weather.

[kate42]

PS

Another warm day. Right now it is a sunny 81 degrees.

[MudMaker]
