A lot of the vineyards in Grand Junction aren't expecting their vines to produce much this year. Vines will die back and they'll have to train them again.

born in SC. 8 generations in the upstate. moved to Miami at 18. lived in served a year w/ 3RDMARDIV in Oki, spent another few years in NC at Lejune. Always kinda liked the warm climates, but im built for it. you tall drinks of water are the ones that suffer. im built like a bulldog so i can conserve my warmth. doesnt help much on the gas bill though.

'Below teens'???? HAH.. Yesterday morning it was -22F.. This morning it warmed to -11F.. Gonna get close to +5 by noon..
Serious question, do you guys have to use two batteries, glow plugs, block warmers to get vehicles and such to start??? No, most new vehicles start pretty good down to about -20 or so. Lots of cars/trucks/suv's come with, or we install a block heater. You plug it in at night, and it keeps your anti-freeze warm enough to start your truck with ease in the morning.
Camp is where you make it.

Makes a man wonder where the heck is Al Gore and his threats of Global warning?
I guess in some parts of the country the word winter has always meant short sleeves and short pants. Has the word winter ever meant cold weather to anybody or don't you all care to read history?

Serious question, do you guys have to use two batteries, glow plugs, block warmers to get vehicles and such to start??? All 4 vehicles have block heaters on them. 2 of my trucks have dual batteries. The diesel came that way. My 1996 F250 protested being started this morning and it was only -3�F.

For the first time in 5 years my pond in South Carolina is frozen over completely. It is certainly frigid cold here.

Dress in layers, cover your skin, wear a toque. You'll get used to it.
