    Chilly Morning, But Could be Worse!

    37 degrees in Mobile this morning, freeze warning for tonight. But it could be worse:
    My hometown in northeast PA has 31" of snow on the ground, its 18 degrees and wind is howling. And still getting flurries.

    I'll trade you for either place. It hasn't been above freezing since I have been back, March 3rd. Not that much snow though.

    It was 29 in the turkey woods 100 miles northof the coast this morning. Froze all the turkeys' gobble boxes. Most exciting thing I had happen was when a little icicle formed on the end of my nose. My fireplace got a moderate workout today.

    Chile, I went fly fishing about 1:00 PM today, it got up to 34. I picked up 14 of them in a little over an hour C/R, but my guides kept freezing and that makes it hard to fly fish.

    Chile, Went fly fishing for trout today, I picked up 27 of them and wanted to hit 30, but I fell down and the water came over my waders, then I went home. My guides didn't freeze up, it was 39, but there was ice on the edge of the stream.
