Wow! You're not that far from us. I don't think we had ice, but I wasn't outside until Wednesday afternoon. But, it sure is rainy and cold, now.

We northerners deal with it every year, me for 59 so far. Not a big deal. We could live in Finland where the stuff is dog deep already. Quit whining, Toughen up

I need a new Avatar. I'd put my dog up there but she doesn't look much like me. She's the skinny one.

We live on the I-44 corridor where we have more Ice than Snow. I have spent up to a 10 days in a row without power and hope to not do it again in the near furture~~~ :worship:

Well Rick, someone told me it was a figment of my imagination. That it doesn't snow in Southern California. :thinking: It's been in the 80's and expected to be there for another week. It has been getting kind of chilly at night. Down into the low 60's, high 50's. :lol:
