What's that Movie, that I've seen several times, with Meryl Streep and always reminds me of you and your adventures??

Oh, Yes, "River Wild"

What it looks like out my window today...not looking good for fair weather boaters. I got the thwarts, just have to cut them to size and screw them onto the boat. I'm just not sure whether I want to go out and freeze my rolls off tomorrow! I'm trying to psych myself up for it, telling myself that when I get out there it WILL be fun, once I get past the cold and spazzing legs! More to come after I dig out the saw and the drill...

I love that pic! I just love the snow...especially when it is somewhere else that I don't have to shovel! It reminds me of my snowmobile trip!

Good luck if you do get out tomorrow! If not, let us know when the next one is.

Ok...I am calling it off.

It's still snowing, and here's the National Weather Service bulletin from tonight:

.TONIGHT...MOSTLY CLOUDY. A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS IN THE EVENING...
THEN SNOW SHOWERS LIKELY OVERNIGHT. SNOW ACCUMULATION OF AN INCH
OR TWO POSSIBLE. LOWS IN THE LOWER 20S. NORTH WINDS AROUND 10 MPH.
CHANCE OF SNOW 60 PERCENT.

.SATURDAY...PARTLY SUNNY. HIGHS IN THE LOWER 30S. NORTHWEST WINDS
15 TO 20 MPH WITH GUSTS UP TO 35 MPH.


I really wanted to do this. I am not willing to suffer hypothermia just to prove that I can still do it. There were a few brave souls at the bridge when I went to look at the water level. They were there for the same thing. We all discussed the whole situation and were mostly of the mind that if it wasn't called off, it should be.

I vote for warmer weather. I'm either getting smarter or I'm old.

Wise move RW. I hope you're not too disappointed, but when I looked at that picture with so much snow around, I thought it was pretty, but far too cold for what you have in mind.

The weather forecast clinched it. Much too dangerous right now, but I'm sure there'll be another chance when the weather warms up a bit.

Thanks for keeping us up to date.

It's the right thing to do.
