Hi Avril, Chris, SSSKiki, Monnie, Jeff, Antonia, Laura LeeLee and Bobby Ray!Brrrrrrrooney! It has be ARCTIC here but guess what? LAST NIGHT we had HUGE 65 mile an hour winds and today a Chinook is here! Giving us temps in the 40's!
IMPRESSIVE!! So, we took the opportunity to haul more firewood into the house!
(ALL THE WHILE The Snowman and Polar bear putted by overhead! Backfiring and dipping....Doesn't look good. But they will get it figured out by Christmas Eve!!! Monnie you are so right. They have been using our street as their runway each time they have to land, fix things and start again.)
THANK ALL!
MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL! :D
Thanks for visiting!! #10922630

:-) Do polar bears fly also? #10928893Laura E. Swan December 25, 2013

Thank you Brother John. Wm, Lydia and Steve.

Wm those ice storms are so terrible sand dangerous. Please stay safe. Lots of sand or salt on your sidewalks okay?
Any leads on your tires? I cant believe someone just came and nabbed them right off of your property. It is a changing world. So sorry to hear this.
We use all season radials and don't hit the highways in the winter these days. Just city roads. The Rockies are just a short drive but we don't make the trip into them this time of year. It's just too dangerous at a moments notice.
PLEASE EVERYONE. DRIVE CAREFULLY THIS TIME OF YEAR. If it's not the snow it can be the drunk drivers. Each of you is so precious.
WATCH OUT FOR THE OTHER GUY * * * BUT * * * Don't don't watch for SANTA or he will not come and deliver presents tonight!
-Big Hugs, Laura :D #10929096
