It seems the talk of our town, has been when and how much snow and/or ice we'll be getting with the storm that's heading our way. When looking at the map, I'd say we're gonna get snow instead of ice, but as we all know, Mother Nature's always has the ability to pull a fast one on us from time to time.The first and foremost thing I had to focus … continue reading

213 S. Tennessee Ave., Mason City, IA
Another below-zero morning was encountered when heading to work early, but fortunately, we should be back above freezing by tomorrow afternoon, but then it's going to drop back down again, and then back up on Saturday. Now that we're waving good-bye to the month of January, we shouldn't be having the extended cold-snaps like we've had these past mo … continue reading

A Well-Deserved White Christmas Of 2022

A Well-Deserved White Christmas Of 2022
When finding the wind still blowing this morning, I was beginning to wonder when it would ever stop, but at least it finally did this afternoon, just before it began to snow. At least it'll be short-lived because of how warm it's supposed to get this week. Let's keep praying we'll not be getting sleet mixed with the predicted rain.Once I arrive … continue reading

What Stalin and Hitler Created

What Stalin and Hitler Created
I'm sure there weren't many out in today's weather with the cold drizzle that started early-on. At least we didn't get hit with what the Eastern Seaboard is now enduring.  Yes, our weather patterns are getting quite erratic these recent years.The only productive thing I managed to get done today, was write an offer on a vacant lot. I thought i … continue reading

The Prayer Rock

The Prayer Rock
We finally had a sunny day arrive, and as it wore on, the northwest wind finally subsided enough to where it was actually calm by the end of the day. While on the phone with an associate today, I couldn't help mentioning how much colder and windier this past March was, and later having it confirmed when opening my office's gas and electric bill. Af … continue reading

Start Carrying Off The Many Thugs

Start Carrying Off The Many Thugs
In spite of it being April Fool's Day, the weather finally straightened out enough to where I didn't have to wear my winter coat once the afternoon arrived. It sounds like it's going to be in the 50's tomorrow afternoon, which should allow for a decent day outdoors as long as the wind isn't blowing. Sunday's forecast is calling for rain, so whateve … continue reading

Price Reduction On 1125 W. State Street
Our outside temps created another day of wearing my winter coat, so perhaps this'll be a personal record for me with having to wear it longer than normal. Considering we're only a few days away from April 1st, I'd say we've had an exceptionally cold and windy March.Pretty much my entire day was spent working with files which were supposed to cl … continue reading

An Address of 1401 N. Washington
This lingering dampness and cold is starting to grow annoying, and when checking on this weekend's weather, it looks like we'll be lucky if we even get close to forty degrees both Saturday and Sunday. The longer this hangs on, the more likely we're not going to have the easing into summer, but rather the sudden happening.When I arrived at offic … continue reading

I'm sure many of you were staying close to home considering how cold, damp and dreary it was outside today. When I glanced outdoors this afternoon, for a brief period there were snowflakes falling. Thank goodness it was short-lived because I'm definitely not in the mood to be shoveling snow again.I spent part of my morning preparing a closing s … continue reading

Sitting On Cursed Soil

Sitting On Cursed Soil
With our temps up in the sixties, we were offered another pleasant day, and it would've been even better if the wind wasn't blowing so hard from the south. At least the last remaining piles of snow around our City are slowing melting away. Good riddance.Since I'd accumulated a large amount of refuse over the weekend, I decided to get it loaded … continue reading
