Damn, I'm Doomed...Again...

The hardest thing about being a Graveyard Groomer in Mid-April is turning off the body's internal clock so I can get a good day's sleep! Christ, I only took a three hour nap overnight, and here I am at nearly 4PM still wide awake!

Today's much hyped return to Wintertime is a big fat fizzle so far! Here at the DaveCave, I had to abandon my plans to shoot some new photos for this blog. I had planned to do some Logo photos on my front porch adorned with freshly fallen snow...in fact, I had to deploy my shovel when I fired up my Bar-B-Que to grill a NY Steak for Brunch! After brunch, the Sun came out and the dusting of fresh snow melted in the wink of an eye! So much for my logo photo shoot! I need snow!

So I surfed the Web to look at the latest satellite and radar data...the latest storm system isn't exactly setting my world on fire...the center of the low is barely moving onshore, consequently, most of the action is moving from South to North...and not making any appreciable progress easterly towards my Mountain.

Looking at Reno's AFD, it looks like the time frame has lingered enough that the storm period will last through Thursday afternoon...maybe things will stack up...keeping my fingers crossed here...damn, it better start stacking up soon, or my logo shoot will have to wait for next season!

  1. I was wondering what happened to the old logo. Guess I missed that entry.

  2. Boy Howdy! Boise was a buzz with the activity yesterday throughout the night! The lightning show was incredible, especially with the rain and the wind slamming down.

    There was a 30,000' cumulus humongous on the stae line of Id/Nv...that came North with it's own signature.

    Needless to say Pay Pay felt a bit ill disembarking from his Boise to Reno flight around 2ish.

    Drive back was SWEET!

  3. Oh and by the way, whilst I was journeying East a whole mess of big semis with logos like racing teams were heading West. Guess the town of Meridian, Id is doing a Sprint or some sort of race on Saturday. Pretty impressive rigs like Yamaha etc... Boise is a very vibrant town. I even spied a Crab Shack by the river.

  5. Huh??? There used to be a photo of a piece of equipment in the snow behind the Corduroy Planet Making Light in the Dark masthead. That has disappeared.

    What was that, a hallucination?
