Howdy do, Conor. *HUGZ*
I heard it was a pretty nice day in your part of the country. Are you expecting crazy weather when the front moves through?
BIKERS FOR TRUMP t-shirt...how cool is that!!
But you live in Massachusetts...are you far enough away to miss the grief from the insane dims?

Good evening, mountainlion, and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.
Were you able to get both in and out of home? Enough firewood to stay warm?
We’ve not seen any temps above zero for a couple weeks, but Sunday may bring +10 and a bit of snow. Then by Tuesday night back to below zero.
I had never heard of the Wrangell Mountains, but *man* is that area beautiful.
Be very, very careful...as I know you will. Still using your walker for safety?
No snow is good, altho you do have boys to shovel. d:o)
Thanks, Mac, for my favorite “crosses”.
Good evening, radu...and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.
Did you survive the storms of the day? Everything still standing?
Dot and I had a great time...good food (Mexico in Alaska...Dot has known the owner for years and years) and lots of catching up. Just before Christmas, while she had company, her sewer backed up. Gonna be a really expensive fix, but she is kinda glad to get it fixed and up to code so her daughter won’t have any issues when the time comes to sell it. It would never pass any inspection.
Hey there, Kathy.
Yes, we survived the storms with most everything intact. Had a section of gutter ripped loose and it’s folded up onto the roof. We’re glad that’s the only damage done and that all the trees are still intact. We got lucky but it was a scary time for a while. It’s hard to make me nervous during storms but I was today.
Glad you and Dot had a good time at lunch. As I recall, Mexico In Alaska serves large portions and you have leftovers for supper. Didn’t have to cook this evening!
They say everything happens for a reason and maybe it’s good her sewer had problems when it did. Now the house will be up to code when the time comes to sell it. Still a drag that it happened. Yuck!
A couple more pics of the Wrangells...
The Wrangell Mountains are a high mountain range of eastern Alaska in the United States. Much of the range is included in Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park and Preserve. The Wrangell Mountains are almost entirely volcanic in origin, and they include the second and third highest volcanoes in the United States, Mount Blackburn and Mount Sanford. The range takes its name from Mount Wrangell, which is one of the largest andesite shield volcanoes in the world, and also the only presently active volcano in the range. The Wrangell Mountains comprise most of the Wrangell Volcanic Field, which also extends into the neighboring Saint Elias Mountains and the Yukon Territory in Canada.
Good evening, Luv, and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.
Thank you for the hymns.
Hi, Kathy!
Thank YOU for a beautiful Chapel thread. Hope you have a blessed and restful Sunday too! (((hugs)))
Staggering. I wish I had gone to Alaska when I was healthy enough.
It is beautiful, and especially for the outdoorsmen type. LOTS of things to do.
The only issue right now is that it has been double digits below zero for a couple weeks. This too shall pass. LOL!
How's everyone doing this morning?
“This too shall pass. LOL!”
According to some real scientists, as opposed to global warming whackadoodles, we’re going into a grand solar minimum, so it might not pass until the 2050s.
Howdy, E.G.C. ((HUGZ))
Did you take Gizmo to the lake for some fun and exercise yesterday or was the weather a bit cool for it?
