these pictures have been floating around the internet for a couple of years, with all the snow and ice around it reminded me of them.

I guess things could be alot worse huh?

Burrrrrrrrrr........freaking........burrrrrrrrr

I'll just sit tight and wait for Hueso to send more warm tropical pictures

I realize that this is not severe for some people but should hit the mid 20's here in South Alabama in the morning

May be Hueso will keep up us warmed up all winter with mo pics

Screw that icy crap! The one thing I hate, (maybe more than BalsaCore), is temperatures below 50ÂºF... I'd never make it as a Yankee!

Raybo Marine NY · Post by **Raybo Marine NY** » Dec 21st, '08, 11:13

its pretty warm here today, a balmy 36 degrees or so

I have been to Alaska, we did not get to see scenery like this

capt pat the palmtree is a nice touch but those guys are just plain olde stupid

CaptPatrick · Post by **CaptPatrick** » Dec 21st, '08, 15:31

I figure that those bare chests lasted just long enough to snap the photo... Now just how long that palm tree would last, with snow laden fronds, is a puzzle.

Why do you think I have a business in the Virgin Islands and our Annual Home-owners meeting is in February. Let's see some more pictures from San Juan.

My favorite tree???
Palm tree . . . see any? No? we're in the wrong place!
Ice on the creek and the pond this morning and tomorrow's supposed to be cold. Oh, yea? What's today?
Pray for February.
