I should've taken a clue when he stopped bragging.

Yep! LOL.

Actually, this is unusally cold weather, but it won't last long. I really shouldn't be whining about the weather considering what the rest of the country deals with during the winter. It's just that we are "soft" out here, I think.

[Lady Jag]

It's all what you're used to. Can't acclimate to unusual weather fast enough.

NIce pics and a frosty hello ... thanks, Mrs. Bear.

Pretty dern cold where I am, too ... down around 12 degrees last night.

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

[Lady Jag]

I hope they're long shorts and you're wearing knee-length boots.

[MEG33]

Here you go!...Duct Tape!

[MEG33]

LOL..That's me at my computer when the sliding glass door is letting freezing air seep through.

[Lady Jag]

Got any tape you can use on that leaky sliding glass door?

[MEG33]

I have considered it but would not want to spoil my view.LOL I'll just throw another blanket on my feet!

[Lady Jag]

I'll just throw another blanket on my feet!

Throw one on the fire while you're at it! LOL!

What's this view you won't trade for?

[MEG33]

At my house ..I have my computer right by the door in the guest room that overlooks my patio, birdfeeders, a lovely youpon tree, and a glimpse of the woods behind my house. The squirrels provide entertainment,too. There is a ravine behind my house and the neighbor's houses. When I look out my living room doors all I see are the woods... no houses, no fences.

Et tu, MzBear? :)

Your fountain looks almost like an ice sculpture on a cruise ship! :) Here's what we see here today.

[Mama_Bear]

Looks beautiful but can be dangerous.

[Lady Jag]

My computer is in my studio next to a window that has a bird feeder, oaks, pines and maples. On the other side of the room is a sliding glass door to the deck, three more bird feeders and a wiew of pines, oaks and maples. Behind me is a bay window with a view of the backyard, the pool, goldfish pond, and the forest. Go to the front of the house and look out to see the forest.

[Lady Jag]

That's beautiful.

Hi, Lori - thanks. I think it's about 29 degrees right now. So much of the country seems to be getting this ice storm though. We don't usually get this much ice - at least not without snow, and there's no snow this time.

[MEG33]

Sounds lovely! I have a small home but I love my views.

[MEG33]

Last time we had really big ice storm I wasn't at home..I came home to a lot of large broken limbs on the patio and trees were down in the woods. It took months for the city to pick up all the debris..There are huge old oak trees that were so damaged..Luckily no one in my neighborhood had any house damage from falling limbs. I remember your dangerous "brush" during cleanup of limbs.
