Default Almost went out today....

but when I stepped outside, it was 20 degrees. So I referred back to the old saying, "When the going gets tough, uh, you step back inside and have another cup of coffee," or something like that.

Rob, I believe I would have gone back in also. If I don't have to be out in it, I ain't gonna be.

Rip, I feel sorry for y'all up there. My inlaws live in the western southern tier, and it's usually pretty nice when we go visit. Hope we don't have to go up in the winter.

We have a cold front coming through around noon, and it
is supposed to get down into the 40's. Raining right now.

Y'all stay warm, it will be spring soon.

Earl

Started off with 4 inches of snow then sleet and freezing rain and now looking at up to two inches of rain. Everything is a mess. At least one day closer to spring. LOL.
