Is there really so little to do in Wasilla at this time of year that you have to while away the time shooting at imaginary birds?? Laughing

Wow, I caught the first one that came along. Somebody takes their football real serious, and that's ok we all have those things we are fond of. Now take me for instance, I have been told that I am a social predator, probably due to my great sense of humor! P.S I am a responsible gun owner and don't shoot anything off the buoys! Hope your team does well this Saturday!

boy, listening to all the sports "experts" on the TV and radio, the Hawks may as well just turn around and come home now. It's going to be extra nice if the Hawks put a whippin on the Steelers......tough part is that around here, the kid & I have been rooting for the Steelers for years....we're hoping the Steelers come in 2nd

Ohhhhh, right. I remember now...it IS football. At first I was thinking it was curling.

Yup, good weekend to stay home and watch the tube. We're going to head to the coast tomorrow and take a peek at 40' seas....we'll be leaving the boat at home. They're calling for 100 mph gust tonight on the north coast....gots to keep a lookout to see if I can spot the Astoria/Warenton fleet flying by.
go Hawks

Ken- Won't those waves throw a whole ______ (wheelborrow) load of clams up on the beach?

I seem to remember going to the Oregon coast about 40 years ago after a big storm, and therre we clams all over the beach.

Might be a great opportunity if you could get them while they're still fresh, providing they're legal and healthy to take this time of year!

Be sure to take your surfboard, anyway!

Joe.

Man, you guys are a tough crowd to pick on. I thought for sure the "curling" would get a cool come-back. Smile

Anyway, hope all of you enjoy the big game...I'm not much of a sports guy.

That's some nasty weather you're in for! I thought we were going to have it nasty.

Forecast for Kodiak Island
Tonight
Snow likely in the evening...then snow after midnight. Snow accumulation of 2 to 4 inches. Blowing snow reducing visibilities to 1/2 mile. Lows in the teens to mid 20s. Southeast wind increasing to 30 to 45 mph.
Saturday
Snow in the morning...then snow and rain in the afternoon. Snow accumulation of 1 to 6 inches. Storm total snow accumulation 3 to 10 inches. Highs in the mid 30s to lower 40s. Southeast wind 40 to 60 mph with possible gusts to 80 mph near channeled terrain.
Saturday Night
Rain and snow. No snow accumulation. Lows in the upper 20s to mid 30s. Southeast wind 30 to 45 mph with possible gusts to 60 mph.

Looks like a good weekend to stay home.

damn weather stinks all over. That big time professional curling is all fake, I don't watch it Smile

Joe, I don't know about clams but the last time they had a blow like this it threw the New Carrisa on the beach. Last year was great for clam digging & we still have some left,, got's to get um consumed before we harvest more

If this "wind storm" develops like they're predicting, we may be watching the game by candlelight. Durn temperature is getting warmer too.....good grief things aren't lookin' good......TV by candlelight and warm beer... Disgust

Actually, since I've got a generator wired into the house, we can still keep the beer cold and I can watch the game on TV while Carol does the laundry in the washer and dryer. Wink

Good luck, dave...
Sea Wolf, it's late up here, or early, depending on one's perspective, and the winds have begun in south Seattle. Buster and I were just out battening down Bambina when we absorbed the wind and rain. He's sorta like a dog, and I love the rain, so all was well.

Still, in a few hours I'm driving over the pass to eastern Washington. If bad stuff happens to me, like killer trees or naughty swirls of snow, just manufacture nice things to say at my funeral. Here's help: Mercurial but kind, Cat Guy liked boats and Brussels sprouts, garlic, too, and felt very fortunate to sea his Seehawks win the 2006 Super Bowl.
Hawk doubters, prepare to be shocked.

5:55 a.m., the wind has just started blowing here in Fall City. We have a big tree growing out of a stump in our front yard, the top is dead to boot. With a south wind, it is pointed right at where Daydream and Expedition are normally parked. Been trying to convince Patty to get rid of this tree for years, but she thinks its "pretty." Moved boat to street yesterday, cars just now. Maybe a good gust will come along and solve my problem, hope it misses the garage! If anybody needs firewood, this tree is AVAILABLE! Come and take it down! On our way to Birch Bay when Patty gets up, turn on tube, turn gas heater up to 90, snuggle down for the weekend...GO SEAHAWKS!!!!

Whoo, you guys and the road, take care. It is a stormin. Up Mac and Linda's way, gusts to 68mph, north of Dave S, 79mph! And the main storm hasn't hit yet. The good news, Monday and Tuesday the sun will be out and no wind. Sounds like boating weather to me. Finally.

Catman, get your mercurial butt over the pass! You know Mercury was the god of travel, amoung other things, so you will be ok. Robbi

Go Hawks
