Does frostbite hurt less when one experiences it every year?

Truth be known, you don't need to get frostbite here, you simply have to be smarter than the winter, guess it's why we don't complain about our voting booths up here....It's the daily experience that keeps it away. Playing in the extraordinary blue waters of the lakeShovelling so much every day, you just don't have the time to pay attention to it. On particularly wonderful days like today On the one day we don't have to shovel, then it stands out particularly strong, and we understand how blessed we are to have to shovel 364 days a year.......

Does your blue hair club have a betting pool on when the first hurricane hits?

Hi everyone. Just got back online. Had really bad storms last night, and we lost cable and internet.

My daughter was pumping water all night as she lost power and the sump pump wouldn't work. At least we didn't lose our power this time. :) Missed by a quarter mile..

Gramp had to run to Home Depot and get them a generator. Lots of trees down in the area, but it sure is nice to finally have the TV and internet working again.

Sheesh what weather, and more strong storms predicted for this afternoon... Cold front, donchano? Sighhhh...with every good thing, comes a threat. Best find the box with most of the candles before the storm front. Of course I have no idea where the candle holders are.

OK, you two. Time for a side-by-side photo comparison of your respective areas. :)

sunsets.... Michigan on the left, Florida on the right
