Ah, so the rain stopped early enough you were able to get out for a while? Cool.

I know you’ll be happy to have your truck running up-to-snuff again. I hope there isn’t much more to do.

We’re going to be cold here too. It’ll be in the 20s 24 hours from now. :-( Friday’s high will barely be above freezing. It’s pretty warm out there right now so it’s gonna hurt.

But we’ll be back in the 50s Saturday. Whiplash on this roller coaster ride!

Yesterday was crisp and bright.
But it got warmer through the night.
And today, it’s drizzle drizzle drizzle
And once again, Penny’s hiking plan fizzles.

This is a weird winter, but at least tis’ a mild mild day.

((((Can’t resist quoting Melville!)))

Remember our troops!
That's an order!
Besides, they keep us safe and free!
Can't beat a deal like that!
Hope all of you have a GREAT day!
Won't be hard here.
It's beautiful outside!
(((hugs)))
