It’s +7 right now.
I won’t laugh. When I was stationed at Hill AFB it got down to +11. That was the coldest I had experienced in my life at that point.

Love Peter Frampton. He’s been to hell and back and has grown quite humble. And he plays like he really enjoys it, not at all like he’s only doing it to get a paycheck.

To Whom It Is Due
November 16, 2013
My husband and I live in a rural area surrounded by farms where this slogan is popular: If you ate a meal today, thank a farmer. Farmers definitely deserve our gratitude. They do the hot, hard work of tilling soil, planting seeds, and harvesting the food that keeps us from starving to death.
But every time I thank a farmer, I also try to remember to offer praise to God, for He is the One responsible for producing the food we eat. He gives light, sends rain, and creates the energy within the seed that gives it the strength to push through the soil and produce fruit.
Although the earth and everything in it belong to God (Ps. 24:1), He has chosen humans to be its caretakers. We are responsible to use the earths resources as He would use themto do His work in the world (115:16). And just as we are stewards of Gods physical creation, we also are stewards of His design for society. We do this by respecting those He has placed in authority, by paying taxes, by giving honor to those who have earned it, and by continuing to pay our debt of love (Rom. 13:7-8). But one thing we reserve for God: All praise and glory belong to Him, for He is the One who makes everything possible (Ps. 96:8).
Sing praise to God who reigns above,
The God of all creation,
The God of power, the God of love,
The God of our salvation. Schütz
Gods unsearchable ways deserve our unbounded praise.

That’s one of the problems with bifocals. For a second, I thought it said “Garlic Storm”.
