I really needed to go into town till I looked outside.... There in the valley is the "Fog of Death" the 10th Plague of Egypt that kills the first born males..... I DO NOT TEMP THE LORD MY GOD nor the Fate of the Weather... I can go later.

Glad the NO's have it and you are keeping your artwork as is.

The temperature is 70 F here, the high will be 75 today. Overcast and humid, sprinkles of rain here and there.

The "NO" decision was the right one for that particular project.
It was -9F at midnight, and is now sunny and +35F. Rapid temperature change that is known as the "Chinook". There is a light W breeze here, but really windy with drifting snow elsewhere.
It is Hump Day today and so far I have managed to get the laundry done and put away. Just finished lunch and am now going to walk the dog.

I made us a hamburger veggie soup / stew for lunch... musta been good JD finished it off. We're up to 35 and I've gotten quite a bit done around here as far as placing the dresser and getting carpets changed around for the holidays. it's our old gang in the LOBBY here chatting when you see a group in there.

LOL, sure, but where will my kids sleep when they spend the weekend with me? Besides, by February it does get cold here, even ice storms and when that happens, no one goes anywhere. We are above normal temps right now, but it's not going to last forever.

I love hockey!! It's the only sport I like!

I think the last time I had a pair of skates on was in my mid thirties. We do have ice rinks here and there, but they are indoors, but at my age, I don't think playing hockey is a good idea.

I used to watch the Fort Worth Texans play at the Will Rogers Coliseum until 1981.

I watched the Texans beat the 1980 USA Olympic team during the Pre-Olympic tour, winning on Jan 16, 1980, 4–3 at a sold-out Will Rogers Coliseum. Then they went up to Bloomington, MN. and they beat them again. The only professional team to beat the USA Olympic team twice.

Every time hockey comes up in conversation OOOooooooo CANADA !!!!! Comes to mind. Our local Hockey team in DSM the Buccaneers is the barbarians at the gates when it comes to hockey. We get seats every year and share them with friends./ workers.....
