Makes it easier for the cats to track the non existent rodents...Charlotte chose to stay on the couch!

Cool What a difference a day makes....

One day our pups were swimming at Glendale, the next morning they were playing in the snow. Mother Nature is laughing at us!

Yup, all your fault for buying that new jet ski!. Don’t feel bad, every time I’ve ever bought a car or a boat it rains for days.

That didn't look like fun at all. I'm keeping an eye on tomorrow, but I'm thinking more likely I'll come up without the fam Wednesday if that ends up looking good.

No - I love fishing but only on flat water warm sunny days. Was headed off island to head home for the weekend. Will be back Sunday night. First time in civilization in about month. I can't say I miss it at all. Can't wait to get back!

Been out in the boat in all sorts of weather, but this was my first with snow coming down. Pretty crazy!

Didn’t realize it was going to be measurable snow for y’all. Now I feel guilty for going out to my favorite place for apps and margaritas in the 85 degree weather yesterday.

I asked my brother about it and he insisted it was sand. Even built a sand castle out of the stuff.

We need some good old fashioned global warming! I recommend everyone start burning tires in their back yards!
