Good evening, luvie, and thanks for helping honor one of our heroes.

Howdy, E.G.C. ((HUGZ))

Lucky you, getting a nice little warm-up. You’ll be warmer than I will.

Gizmo will probably have his happy face on again Tuesday. :-)

It being a deep well is more important than it being close, but it's a shame it couldn't have been both. LOL! At least you can drive over there...walking over would be very uncomfortable. At least these chilly temps are very temporary. Tomorrow it's supposed to get up to 60, so there is that. The roller coaster 🎢 is alive and well

Hi, Kathy! It’s a pleasure to be able to honor these brave men and women who keep us safe and free. God bless them all.

Great story tonight! (((hugs)))

The office lease is up in March and they chose not to renew. So they are moving to B Street. I just don’t know where yet. I’m going to email the office manager tomorrow for an address.

C ST is a good alternate depending on the B St addy.

Yes...thank goodness for working from home.

It’s a bit of a walk but I don’t mind walking to the well house when the weather’s nice. Not very nice out there tonight though.
And yep, having a deep well is important. When I had to get a new pump a little while back, it had been very dry here and they pulled the old one up, the pipe was wet about 30 feet above the pump. The pump doesn’t sit on the very bottom. The well guy remarked on how lucky I am to have a good water supply.

I wash our chilly temps w ere temporary. We’ll stay chilly. I’m keeping a close eye on weather reports because there’s a chance for sleet or freezing rain early Tues. morning. Most likely north of here but it just takes enough of a dip in the temp ......

Good evening/morning, Mooch...glad you enjoyed another hero.

[radu]

Aaaaaaah, can’t blame them for not wanting to renew the lease. It’s probably expensive as heck in Dimond Center. I hope the new office is in the right place to make C St. easy to access. Better than having to meander.

You won’t have nearly as far to drive on the days you have to go to the office. That’ll be very nice!

Good morning, E...((HUGS))...happy dog, happy adventure at Comanche Lake.

Have a great Monday adventure.

[luvie]

Sleeeeet? That’s not good news. I really don’t like sleet. It’s way worse on the roads than snow could ever be.

I guess I should get outta here soon. I’m still sleepy from my early wake-up call. See ya tomorrow! Stay warm!

[radu]

I’d rather have sleet than freezing rain. Freezing rain tends to bring power outages.

Just rain is definitely most preferable of the three.

Sleep well and late! Catch ya tomorrow.

Thanks, Kathy, for telling his story.
