Nope...but only eleven days until I head south for Central Florida again. I'm looking forward to it. I miscalculated and didn't miss the worst winter storms here.

Yes, I've been reading about it. We had about five inches of snow with some bitter cold. I sure hope everyone in your area has stocked up on provisions!

I can just picture the scene Milton, I read about the winter storm hitting the east coast. Stay in stay warm. Tom

Apparently the upper coastline is going to get the worst of it. Boston is supposed to be hard hit as well as the coast of Maine. I think we've seen the brunt of it here in Eastern Kentucky.

I guess it's time for you to start staying more indoors, and preferably in front of your warm fireplace with a nice soothing drink Milt! Very nice Haiku...ab

Indeed. Although I'm going to try to shovel out this afternoon after the sun has warmed up my car a little bit. I need to go to the store for some potatoes!
