Ahhhh....spring is here!

Recommended Posts

Well if you did not live up in the rarified air of the upper atmosphere... its quite nice down here at sea level.

In my climbing days I have been snowed on in every month and in nearly every week of the summer months . Temperature and Pressure....a good thing to know when messing about in the bumpy places upon Planet Earth.

Funny thing is just 8 days ago it was 85F here, and I was sweating like hell in my motorcycle gear.

I feel your pain, we got a good amount downtown too...had to bust out my ski goggles for my morning bicycle ride to work :)
It doesn't really bother me, I love snow. My roommate and I got a 25 mile bike ride in on Saturday before the rains hit, snow for a few days, back to sunshine and 80 by the weekend B|

Well, except for the swarms of mosquitoes the size of 747's this time of year. :S



Driving from Vancouver to Alaska at the right time of the year will net you thousands of bug splats on your windshield, or so I was told by a friend who made the drive.

The most beautiful Springs I've enjoyed have been in North Carolina.

You should go drive the AlCan... but a better drive.. is to drive to Dawson on the Yukon River in the Yukon.. then go east about 20 miles and get on the road that goes north to Inuvik in the McKenzie River Delta... do that at the Summer Solstice.. there is a world class party where the road crosses the ARCTIC CIRCLE. There is a monument there and a LOT of crazy people to party with in the midnight sun :ph34r:

For me it was in France. They didn't call that song 'April in Paris' for nothing.

Everything looked beautiful once the bombing quit!! :D
