With the exception of some bad weather in the beginning of the week - great. We went for the Huntsman World Senior Games. My wife entered in five table tennis events and medalled in three - two silvers and a bronze. 10,072 participants from 26 different countries. We already booked a condo for next year.

Glad you had a good time!
St George has really grown since the first time I went through there, like in 1981 or 82.

We are in east Sparks and so far we have sunny skies and a heavy frost - well maybe a dusting of snow - but looks more like a heavy frost.

Woke up to about two inches of snow this morning. Far cry from the 6-15 inches that was forecasted. Didn't need the snowblower. Melting when the sun comes out from the clouds. Had just about a dusting Friday night.
We're about 15 miles east of Carson City.
I'm guessing that from Mogul on west, got alot more.

Rain here in Wisconsin, and no snow in the forecast! Only Friday is predicted to have the high temperature below freezing.

My car still has the cheap tires I bought a while back-- then again, I don't go outside of the city much, since I don't really trust the car on long trips any more.

51 and wet/gray today. The same gray that will prevail until spring, :roll:

No snow yet, even up north while deer hunting. made it easy for those little buggers to hide in the field.
