Unhappy I HATE Michigan!!

It's BELOW 50 degrees, I'm looking outside, The ONLY THING
that gives me any joy, is; The AWESOME colors of the leaves
on the trees. (which will soon be on the ground) I've got work to do today.
I've got to drain what's left of the gas in my bike, start it up, run it dry,
and bring it in the house and park it on a diaper till "spring".

I'm officially depressed.

I was going to agree with crzyolphart, until you said you had arthritis. Even the slightest chill can make your bones ache. I feel for you. I have a messed up knee from the army and some other aches and pains. Anytime the weather changes or the humidity shifts down here in Tejas, I feel it.

i got fired last march in michigan. i was 950' up on a tower, trying to install an antenna for the digital tv changeover. 30 degree temps, 40mph winds, rain, sitting up there in the clouds. got to the point where i had to call off the job due to bad weather. they told me to do it or you're fired.

i climbed down and went home. best thing that ever happened to me.

I HATE winter, wtf am I doing in Maine ffs?

Well, anyway - I am planning to ride as long as I can into the dead of winter. I'm not exactly young enough for such foolishness anymore but I gotta try lol

We're having November weather already, October 1st and we get our first frost.


Oh and how can you tell the person knocking at your front door is a Michigan graduate?































He's holding a Pizza!
