Yeah everything started blooming here and now it's going to freeze. Fucking stupid fucking midwest bullshit...

Just as sucky here...high in the upper 40's this weekend and rain showers.

Normal high in the mid 60's

Great Scottish weather for our caber toss clinic on Sunday

I like that you included the 545x0. Nice effort! How ya feeling today?

I bet it's a nice time of year in the sunshine state right now. After April it's just wayyyy too hot for me. I'm going to Florida in August and I'm not looking forward to it. Me + Florida heat/humidity don't fare too well. I was there with my family in October and the weather was perfect -- beautiful enough during the day to go swimming (no humidity - shocker!!) and then slightly cool and comfortable at night.

Steph you're a crazy person...FL is awesome year round.

**stephaniewicked** · 03-26-2011, 05:12 PM

My threshold for heat tolerance is much lower than the average person...

**robert da strongman** · 03-26-2011, 05:54 PM

Rich is right...great weather year round. but August can suck...depends on where you are.
this weekend is supposed to be mid to upper 80's. with the nice ocean breeze it really has not got to 80. middle of the state is where it gets hot...

ugh...
well this week is deload for me, so nothing special going on in the gym.
went to film a couple powerlifters last night. hopefully for an In the Asylum video.
