guys, I think this is something criminal. Now I know where all of OUR snow went ! 

Austria is quite well known for its images of snowy mountains and skiing, but we had another year with very mild fall weather. mostly sunny, just a few foggy days and temps in the mid 50s. Even the roses on my property are still blooming. I just took these pics 10 minutes ago ! Al, Tx  you have to move to Europe it seems

and why I settled in AL instead of WI.

That 4 letter word that starts with 'S'.
I don't like it. I don't like plowing it. Not good for motorcyclin'. Man, you'd think I live in Alaska or sumpthin'.
After a very rare & mild October we still have next to zero of that stuff in the Anchorage area right now.
But that can change overnight at anytime & no doubt will at some point.

How are gas prices in the rest of the world? Amarillo is down to 2.06 for regular unleaded. That 's down about .40 in the past 2 weeks. I paid over 3.00 a gal. on my last road trip to NM. two weeks ago. Diesel is still around 3.

$2.06?  I wish.  At least we don't pay Euro's prices.
Regular gas averages $3.186 here today. Down about 10 cents from a month ago.

Southern Austria ( my area ) is approx $1.50.    a litre.... that is nearly $ 6/ gal.
On highway stations and in Germany it is at least 20% more expensive. easily around $7 / gal

my 1964 German Ford wagon gets 30mpg or more.
my 57 way below 15.

Hate telling you guys, that way up here in the south of Canada, I had to mow my lawn today.

[RICH MUISE]

ha, mine needs it, won't happen. FiveSevenLiter........BC?

[FiveSevenLiter]

Truth be told, I needed to run the fuel out of the tank.
BC, yes but barely.  The border is the 49th parallel and I am at 40 024 degrees North.

Did you mean 49 024 degrees?

[FiveSevenLiter]

Yes 49, what is nine degrees between neighbours?

Maybe that is the reason the guy next door says my new fence is 3 inches on his property!

[Tom S]

Yes 49, what is nine degrees between neighbours?

In this case it's about 625 miles. 

[djfordmanjack]

I am 47 degrees north here in southern Austria.
