Great fun, Chuck! Glad you got out! ...also, hope you have a good basement...I fear that the warm is going to get covered by cold pretty quick and you know well what that means...stay safe!

Nashville's record snowfall was March 17. Snow began the evening before and by early on the 18th, 22inches had accumulated! Our largest snowfalls in Tennessee have mostly arrived in March. Never give up!

PS: Had an estate sale a few years back on April 25. We had snow flurries. Fact.

Haha.. Here in Kentucky is worse! I was fishing in shorts and a t-shirt in January. Kentucky weather is unpredictable and constantly changing..
Last week, we had weather in the high 60's then low 20's.. Wednesday there were tornados and hail coming through, 2 days later, we had 5-6 inches of snow! This weather is nuts! :loco:

Weather has been crazy this year in Wisconsin also, Last week it was 55 degrees one day and we got 22 inches of snow the next, I just hope we get a better summer than we had last year!
