Hello Scott. Your entry is timely as Winter is not over yet. Perhaps more snow tomorrow night. Your words are well executed with much imagery. Well done

that was a great story about your mother in law. I would SUCK at a tonal language. Could never get it with guitar. How would I ever get it with Chinese?
