Right now we are on the right side of the jet stream. A bit cloudy but temps in the mid 70's. So don't try scaring me like that again...I don't like having to play the Speedo card.

Larry Earp SASS#60034 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Oh good, we can trade Outlaw jokes all night. Hope my campfire next to his propane tank won't bother him too much. You don't have any SILLY rules like: "no adult bevridges on site", do you? Waimea If it gets too cold or wet you can always walk about 20 feet and sleep on my couch in the motorhome. I wouldn't want you to catch cold and take unfair advantage of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be me. Wait......arent Speedo's Outlawed?? CC - If they ain't they should be. I only threaten the speedo in dire emergencies. I had to shake KK up a bit. He was gettin' sassy.

Well, you leave me with no choice. Here's the weather where I am (read and weep) Today it's kind of chilly -- 67 degrees. I took a walk earlier and didn't see any snow but I put on a long sleve shirt just in case. Supposed to be 66 (BRRRR) tomorrow but then 71 for Saturday and 78 for Sunday. Monday and Tues next week 83 with a low of around 61. Still a little cool for my taste so I'll keep the speedo in the drawer for now.
