    My brother was complaining to me that he was sweating in Houston this morning. Go figure. Some folks are hard to please.

    We have been getting off easy so far. November was a pain in the rear I thought it was going to be a long cold winter. December has been a piece of cake. I have not used my snowblower once in December but used it several times last month. I hope it keeps up the way it's been recently..... Makes my life so much easier.

    There's an old saying we have in Idaho. "If you don't like the weather here, just wait 5 minutes."

    Yep. I had the ac on in the truck after lunch.
    Now I'm in Moss Point MS. Low tonight, 60. Should be pretty friendly sleeping weather.
