If you stick with the iPhone the transfer is pretty painless....its when you go from android to iPhone or vice versa it gets to be a pia

Something is happening....it seems most of the storms we get are producing higher wind speeds

Still using the iPhone4. The new iPhone is just so expensive. That is what hurts the most.

My 15 yr old grandson is the only one in my family that can afford an iphone 6. I'm also using the iphone 4. Spoiled kids get all the good stuff!!

I agree about the wind speeds. That day this past April the sky turned the darkest I can ever remember around 10am and the whole area was hit with high wind and small tornadoes. We had gusts of up to 90 mph that day that must have toppled the rail cars. Today is a different story...low 70's and sunny but windy.

The fist snowfall of the season always makes me miss Minnesota......

Of course, the best part of it was that it meant you could get your sled out for the first run of the season......

Another disappointing set back on my headlights. One step forward two steps back. I was really hoping to have them finished up for my early morning drive tomorrow.

Gahhh!
