Usually tallahatta over by McCardie's Landing in Choctaw County.  When they built the road, they had to cut through a 6 foot sheet of rock.  They moved three or four chunks the size of kitchen tables about 50 yards down a steep ditch.  You go down, knock off some, load a bucket, and one handed claw your way back up.  Unfortunately, those rocks have been ground away, so I need to find a new source of Tallahatta.  Bill

Just wait until winter, those highs you are bragging about will our lows.  After dark, it may get colder, we might evan get a frost! 

Right now though, it is going to get worse...we still have the "dog days" to make it through.  Bill

I have two words... "Global"...."Cooling"!!! ;D

We are having unnaturally cool temps here in WA this year. We should be up in the 80's to lower 90's and it just aint hapenning. And, there is more cloud cover too!

d. tiller yor not the first to think global cooling
i think it was the 70's-80's and scientist were talking about the same thing because "average temps" werent being hit that often and they called it "global cooling"
i was young back then,but if i remember right they claimed it was caused by man.  hmmmmm

bill skinner: i live in minnesota,and would be happy to have your summer high temps if i could also have you winter lows
                i hate  freezing my whoo whoo's off in the winter,feels like it last 8 months.
                usually starts early nov,and ends in like may.so i guess it is almost 8 months.

El Destructo- Lake Superior should be up to 60 degree F by now, that'll cool you down ;D Enjoy the time off!

The only thing hot here is me from not getting any time to knap! >:( I guess I'll have to make time, just not sure how yet.
