The Great, White Winter of 2017

[Barthheart]

2C here now with a high of 4C today and about 60mm of rain by tomorrow morning...  :P

Forecast is 21C by Monday.... Spring in Ottawa.....  :bd:

Hi here on Sunday is supposed to be 75.

[Sir Slash]

96 Degrees in Fla. yesterday. Spring in the Sunshine State.  ^-^

After getting off the USS America in San Diego, I continued my TDY westward.  I'm now in Kauai and yes, it's official business.

The only complaint about the weather here is that it's boring: low of 70 F, high of 80 F, each day, plus or minus one degree.

I still have my ASL rulebook with me, so maybe I'll take a picture of me with it on the beach.

I didn't know it was possible to be so envious of another person until just now, Trailrunner.   >:(   

I spent 3 days surfing at Barking Sands two years ago, and it was probably the happiest 3 days of my life.

Yep, BS is where I'm working this week.

Before I worked on Navy programs, I worked on Air Force and Army programs.  I had a whole lot of sucky travel for those guys.  On my last job I was on a travel rotation to Columbus (Georgia), Yuma, Detroit, and Lawton.  Joy.

you realize that you are going to trigger Two-ounces with talk of Hawaii....  its on you.... >:D

[bayonetbrant]

and Lawton

If you didn't get up to The Old Plantation in Medicine Park, you're wrong.

My in laws recently returned from a 30 day vacation at Barking Sands...one of their favorite places on Earth and they get to stay there for like 75.00 a day with the military rate.

On a totally different note I am about to be washed away by a massive amount of thunderstorms...pray for me.

Barking Sands is one of the best deals in the world.

We rented a house there, it was something ridiculously cheap like $75-100/day.  We rented it for a week; I went up 3 days early to just surf.  Absolutely amazing experience.

Kauai's not that big, so we were able to drive all the way to the northeast end and hike part of the Na Pali from the east end during a day trip.  Truly, if there is anywhere in the world I could happily spend the rest of my life, it would be Kauai.

Yeah, I'm fully triggered.

The view from the lanai here in Rhode Island looks quite different today.
