Snow!
Well, it's like this... 2 inches of snow in Tennessee + a little warmer + a lot colder = a recipe for disaster... that was the ticket on Thursday afternoon here... Nice and cold! 15-30 degrees this week, and roads have been fun...
so, being the funloving guy I am, I dragged out the bigger go-cart and hit the street, having more fun than a tornado in a Tennessee trailer park...
the growling rumble of the engine... the fog of exhaust in the air... and I was off and running...
this thing'll do about 35-40, and has seat belts and a roll cage...
Took it down the street and spun out in the cul-de-sac, did some donuts and back up the street... knobbies grabbing ice, snow and whatever else they could find...
and I'm suddenly 15 again, flying like my hair is on fire, until I realize how freaking cold my nose and face are getting (my chin and lip are, of course, warm... because I am still the Gotee-man!)...
so I lasted all of about 45 minutes before I headed back for warmer regions (namely, my domicile)... and I realize once again that I am actually not 15, but rather 41... and still lovin' it!
Doesn't take much to bring out the boy in this man...
and I never want to lose that!

The reason for the cobwebs....
Well, I have been leading a crazy life, and have just had too much to do to keep up with it all... so my blog has cobwebs on it fer sher...
Too many hours overtime the past few weeks... too many issues here at home...
and I just haven't had the energy or time to do much else besides the very very essential (and even some of that falls off the plate sometimes as well! NOT good...)
So anyway, just dropping a line to say I haven't forgotten... and I will be back at some point. Glad to find the ones of you I have on Facebook. That's been a cool and easy and more personal way to keep up...
Very thankful for my friends, ITRW & Virtual...
Blessings!
