Had about a foot of snow today and it's been just a tad under the norm for December as far as the temperature goes.

I gotta tell ya Mel ... I served at Ft. Hood and Texas has the craziest weather I ever came across. I remember being on a field exercise and one night the sky was as clear as can be with no clouds at all and it looked like you could reach up and touch the stars. It must have been about 70 degrees and next thing ya know it's 40 and hail the size of friggin baseballs were fallin' and they hurt like hell.

It?s not that cold today. Just checked the temp, 23 degrees. Annette checked on the depth of the snow and said we got 11? but we already had 2? from a previous dusting. (We have a yard stick planted in the back yard. We never think it?s bad unless we can?t see the stick.)

You know I haven?t been cold since last April. Haven?t been bummed out over it snowing, not since last since last April. You just don?t expect cold and snow that accumulates in Georgia.

Actually, we were so un-impressed over the snow that Annette and her sister left around 7:30 AM to got north to a little town near Rutland Vt.

Stay healthy,
Andy

Got 10" in my neck of MA yesterday. Commuting was great fun! It reminded me of the old "Dodge 'EM" cars ride at Revere Beach. And believe me, I had to dodge 'em yesterday!
