Baller Edbrazil Posted December 23, 2015 Baller Share Posted December 23, 2015 I remember the Winter days, working in a Real Job at a machine tool company back in Vermont, when I would go to work in the dark and drive home in the dark. Finally, there was a day around mid-February, when I could drive all the way home without having to turn on the headlights. Although, currently, they aren't having much for a Winter up there. Supposed to be many high temperature records tomorrow. Ski areas are struggling to stay open. Good snow- making weather not going to come around for a week or more. Looking forward to see some water ski videos on the news from Christmas and New Years, from places that normally would have frozen lakes and plenty of snow.

Baller 2Valve Posted June 21, 2019 Baller Share Posted June 21, 2019 It's been a crazy spring for sure. Waaay too much rain and the sun must be on an extended vacation or something. However, I remind myself of the positive aspects. Cooler weather, less boats. Life's GOOD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller GregHind Posted June 21, 2019 Baller Share Posted June 21, 2019 it’s the winter solstice today here in one of the coldest sea level parts of Australia. Frost outside. Every day lately has been sunny and still and I’m tempted to get the boat out. Top temperature might be low 50’s F. today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mmskiboat Posted December 27, 2019 Members Share Posted December 27, 2019 Due to our 1st ski boat we bought in the fall and could not use as it went into storage this winter is feeling particularly long. The longer days are awesome. But we have not even had "ice in" let alone "ice out" on the lake. Going to be a long few months coming.... Going to be researching dry suits this Jan :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller pregom Posted December 28, 2019 Baller Share Posted December 28, 2019 It's interesting to see how this thread was started in Dec 2014 and has come back every year around this time of the year. I'm looking forward to the next waterski season, but until then I hope to get lots of snow skiing days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller pregom Posted December 28, 2019 Baller Share Posted December 28, 2019 @Spineofgoo agreed, but winter is still long. Also, Colorado is doing much better and I hope to get there before the season is over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
