Default Wisconsin Winters

Brrrrrr...

You know it was only in the 50s here yesterday and about 60 today. My mom and I tried to jump in lake Michigan, but that didn't last long! Usually I can swim when it's 60, but the lake was exceptionally cold for September!

But either way, September means that the season "road constructon" is almost over and the season "almost winter" is about to begin! That's right folks, when August hits that means that Christmas is 4 months away! After the 4th of July that means the days are getting shorter and summer is almost over. At least in June we aren't thinking too much about "next winter", but we think about how great it is to finally be out of last winter!

The snow fence goes up on Thanksgiving, but many times we'll already have enough on the ground then. It comes down Easter Sunday, but most of the time we'll have another April snowstorm to close some of the schools...well maybe, but only if it's 10 inches or more! We just hope that May won't bring any snow because that really makes you want to move down south!!!!! But as long as there is gas in the snowblower every month of the year, you'll survive.

If it gets below -5, you can certainly count on your driveway drifting shut regardless of the snow fence. Usually you'll be covered in frost bite while trying to shovel it away in 50 mph winds.


So I'm just gonna enjoy my road construction season as long as it will last...and I'll try not to think of

July and August we were running in the high 80's to low 90's. Then a few days ago woke up 55 degrees. We switched from summer to winter. But the last couple days have been nice.
