Out like a lion??

What a week this has been for weather. This past Tuesday it was 70 degrees here in Lincoln. I had the windows open and if just felt nice.


Then, yesterday was the Lake Fork Auction, and I swear those people are bound for bad weather. I've never seen that auction arrive on a day where that it was fit for man or beast.


Yesterday the temp at noon was bouncing between 38 and 40 degrees and it was pouring down rain.


Not that bad weather stops auction goers though, in the little town with a population of only about 100, there was nearly 2000 yes, two thousand people at this auction. They come from not only all over the state, but all over the United States, every year just to bid and buy.


Here's is an example of what the day was like;



Now then, it may be hard to believe, but that was the best of the day. When I turned in at 11 last night it was pouring down rain still, but when Rich got up at 2 and left for work at 4, there was almost a half a foot of snow on the ground!!

See what I mean:

Our neighbor Bob, apparently anxious for summer and days on the lake brought his boat out of storage this week. Bet he wishes now he'd left it there a bit longer.

However, the odds of March going out like a lion are still questionable. Forecast for Tuesday is back into the 70's. Of course I guess we could get a tornado. That would just about wrap it up for a most bizarre week of weather!!
