Good morning to all!!
It's colder than that proverbial posterior of a well digger this morning in South Texas, and since I'm a well digger, it applies to mine as well.

I really appreciate the tribute to the Seabees!
My bud was Navy in WW II, and he told me a lot about the bravery and tenacity of the Seabees.
They had the can-do attitude that won the war; I really didn't know that it was their motto.
It fits perfectly!
I salute those brave warriors, past and present.

Nitro, I'd rather have you on my flank than Arnold any day!

Tonk, thank you for the remembrance of Ted Maher.
That's another item that we cannot forget!!

Good morning everyone. Wet here in NJ, but so warm it feels like spring. When the sun comes out later, like it's supposed to, I think I'll go to the boardwalk. Have a nice day everyone! (-:

We are only at 21 degrees at 10:21 in the morning. Yesterday morning we were iced up with blowing sleet. Wierd weather for this time of year.

LOL! Yeah, tis cold ain't it! ("Colder than a witch's refrigerator!" - rephrased of course). About 15 this mornin' here in Dallas County. We woke to sleet and freezing rain yesterday morning. I went into Dallas in the afternoon and saw two accidents. The roads were generally good, actually, in the afternoon. But there were bridges and underpasses that had treacherous ice. One of the accidents happened just a few hundred yards in front of me. A black Firebird was movin' on at 70 with dry roads and then hit the underpass with MUCHO ice. I think he must have panicked when he saw the ice or something. Cars slowed in front of me. When I passed by the Firebird, he had ended up in the concrete median. After I passed by (other folks were stopping to render aid), his tire - which had come off in the accident, was still rolling down the highway. . .

I took Ming to work yesterday morning because she can't drive with the ice like that. When I picked her up, we saw an SUV upside down in the ditch on the way back! People need to learn to slow down in this mess and don't panic. . .

Me? I learned early in my driving life the keys is slowing down and giving the other folks LOTS of room. I haven't ever had a "boo-boo" on the ice yet.

Thanks for the ping!

A lovely tribute to the SeaBees. The Canteen always has wonderful tributes and remembrances for the heroic service personnel who enrich our lives here in the US.

'Tis a very blustery day here in the land of peaches. I need to move back to FL. I'm too old for this!

Have a terrific day, COB1. Try to stay warm.
