Hey there, Kathy.

WOW!! You got a lot more snow since what you showed me last night! I think it’s very safe to say your pipes will be ok when the temps drop again later this week.
Your plow guy better show up before you have to head out tomorrow. You won’t get out of the driveway let alone up the street.

We got another inch and a half of rain today so we’re in pretty good shape now. Still have tomorrow to go through before this front is supposed to move on.

Whatever happened to the Japanese? It was mighty smoky over Tokyo!

Good evening, packagingguy...I agree, better that we are allies now.

As the Truman regime unfolds, the country is facing housing shortages, inflation, labor unrest and unemployment. Many of the boys who won the war, along with their families, are struggling to cope. Don't forget them.

Here's a song from the other side.

Good evening, Janey...((HUGS))...I love the graphic, and it is so, so true.

Has your home weather improved? No more smoke? Do you still have snow?

[Songcraft]

Here's another one by that guy that will do that to them too.   (I know you probably have more taste than to post this one, Fiji Hill, but I think it does highlight a significant historical reaction of many Americans, right after the announcement and FDR's speech.)

(Please don't anybody here be offended.   I love the Japanese, and wish them all the best.)

Hey there, radu!

Hope you got the rain you’ve been wanting. I noticed that our temperature has been similar again. But of course, I didn’t get the rain part. LOL!

Those brave brave men. Hat’s off to ‘em.

[Songcraft]

God bless him!

Good evening, foldspace...that is a great collage. Thanks!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Welcome home, Pro!!

Congratulations on getting home!!

[luvie]

Amen!

[radu]

Howdy, luvie.

We’ve gotten some good rainfall this week and still have tomorrow and Friday with more. It looks like the heaviest rain will stay north of us tomorrow and I don’t have a problem with that.

I’ve been watching the back end of this wet “train” that’s been running over us because it’s over there by you. It looks like you should be getting a little something now but then again, the radar could be lying. It happens. Or the rain could be evaporating before it hits the ground.
I do hope you’re getting something because you need it.

I have a 78rpm disc of the Carson Robison opus that you posted.

20” on the deck railing, but a walk to the mailbox is more than knee deep. No plow guy yet, but they have to be VERY busy!

But if he doesn’t make it by 9a...I am going nowhere tomorrow. There is no way I can dig out. But...my deck is all shoveled!

[luvie]

Oh, I haven’t been outside since I fed the kitties, so I guess I should go peek. It sure would help to have some, for sure!

Glad you’ve gotten some, too. It’ll help a lot come spring when it’s time for all your flowering trees start to bloom. They’ll have a headstart!

[Songcraft]

Amazing!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

And we have survived another hump day! Hurrah for us!
