I'M SICK AND ILL:wid::fury:

Hope you feel better Dave!

I was going to whine about it, cause I figured everyplace down there was sunny and 60. It's snowing here in Vermont and if it snows a little harder it will start sticking. The technical term for this would be "Sugar snow" since it's maple syrup makin time.

Hope you feel better Dave!

Thanx Larry...I cant take anymore....:devil2:

Snow over...the sun is out now? WTF! :tm:

We had some ice/hail for a few minutes..
Pretty weird weather !

I take it you forgot about the 28" of snow we got about a decade back on April 1st. I'll be in Jamaica a week from today so let it snow I don't care I can handle it.

I'll never forget it, it was 1997 my son was 2 weeks old.
We were living on Wareham St. in Middleboro.
A white pine fell onto the roof, partially through, above the kids room where Paulette was feeding the him.

I unfortunately do not have pictures or they are in a box somewhere to be uncovered by an archeologist several thousand years from now.

I also remember 18" of snow in 1983 my first year in Boston waiting what seemed like hours for the No. 73 Waverly to show up so I could finally end my 3 hour journey from Boston to Belmint via Mass Transit

the leaves were out, oak "flowering". Alot of broken branches and small trees down.

it's spring

but it's not spring until ...... the low stays above 32


21 here :hs:

On May 7th 1975 or 76 we got 10" of snow in NW RI. I will never forget tulips in bloom with just the flowers above the snow.

Waiting for 60 degree days and sunshine, too, but gotta go with the flow. Planning to ski at least a couple of more days, and then I'll stretch the fly line in preparation for opening day in RI.

It was '76, Paul - I remember I had just come back after spending the winter in Florida and didn't come back til May 1 so I wouldn't have to see any snow that year -

Fat chance - :mad:

Look at the bright side - there was a year in the early 1800's in New England that they called 'The Year Without A Summer' - it snowed in July that year...:shocked:

It was killer Chuck!!

I am splashing the boat on 4/3 come hell or high water.

I like your attitude Paul - God hates a coward...:hihi:

Picked up a coupla real nice boat rods over the winter...customs on J Kennedy Fisher blanks...they sure will be nice for live-lining or tossing big eels once the season gets rolling...;)

...and I picked up a sweet Seeker 8' wire rod especially made for the big bunker spoons. I cannot wait!!!

let us know how it works for you. I am an avid bunker spoon user. I had one made by Mike at M&D's few years ago, made a decent difference. Get yourself one these and a safety line too if you don't already have them.

It was squalling last night on the ferry ride back from ACK. Hyannis at 9pm was blizzard like and a PIA driving home after a long day of working on the island. By the time we hit the canal it was gone.

Funny, no snow in Pocasset last nite, thank god

Thanks Paul.
I had great results last year with the Montauk Bunker Spoons. Once the water heated up I was dragging wire in 50 to 80 feet of water off Newport and hammering nice fish. Nothing over 30# but I always had fish.
I had read, over the winter, about a longer rod made for the big swing the bunker spons do so I picked up this rod from a guy in Quincy on the other board. I'll let you know how it works out.
