MN Transplant Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Amen. The season that seems to never end. NBA and NHL are worse as far as how long the seasons go. I'm in La Crosse Wisconsin this week for a company meeting. We got moved from the La Crosse center today because there's an orangutan show or something going on today Head up towards the NWS building if you have a car. Decent views from the bluffs. You can get mornings where the fog completely envelops the river valley but it is clear and sunny up top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 NHL and NFL could play year round in my book (well, NHL is close), MLB, NBA and MLS can have two week seasons as far as I am concerned, their 'fringe' seasons take away from more important television viewing....just MO.

They are way too long too, but 162 regular season games is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
das Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Good luck. I only have 100 losses to look forward too. I am a Nats fan (secondary) though. They should have a good season. I was super excited about today but the stupid Yankees found yet another way to botch things by raining out. After a tough 5+ years, it's good to be an Astros fan again. The 100 loss years only suck a little less if the plan the org has to turn things around seems legit. Good luck with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Balti Zen Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 The timing of the warmth/cold this March/April has been less than ideal for those of us with M-F desk jobs. The weekends have been pretty cold/****ty and the warmth has seemingly been centered mid-week. Best day I had in the last month was the day I took off on the Wednesday before Easter to take my son to see the cherry blossoms - beautiful day - and it got cold over that weekend of course, per usual for this spring.

Bob Chill Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Just mowed my lawn. I still managed to break a sweat even with the cool breezes. Sun angle season. Chores are done. Time to catch a trout for dinner. I've had terrible luck the last week or so. Not one single trout on the stringer. If I was in survival mode I would be dead.

Mrs.J Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 The one thing about this spring is it seems like every 2 days or so a system rolls through and the sinuses flare up. The only relief I have had is when we were in Florida a few weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have cut twice but mainly to just even things up as some places have grown a lot while others are still slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have cut twice but mainly to just even things up as some places have grown a lot while others are still slow. And to get the leftover leaves. My neighbor's oak holds on to them until early spring, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psuhoffman Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 My debate team won state and we are trying to raise money to go to nationals the end of May. We're an inner city public school with little funding so it's a struggle and they are two great kids in a very difficult school so I really want to give them the chance to go. If you could share our go fund me page with anyone that might help I would really appreciate it. Every dollar helps. Thank you.

snowfan Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 The cold this week zapped my neighbors azalea blooms and some of the new growth of my butterfly bush. My carpet of white phlox still looks great, so that's a plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
