well I can't say this many January 13ths. just walked my dogs in my shorts, Tshirt - 75 degrees.

There are flowering fruit trees in bloom everywhere (probably nectarines, maybe a few early cherry and peach trees). Daffodils are not only out of the ground, but have big, swelling buds.

As I said, I can't say that about many January 13ths - but that was then, this is now.

Happy Sunday, all, from sultry Raleigh NC!

feels like it's been colder than normal this winter. i hope the mountains will be cold enough, long enough this winter so some of the pine beetles die off.

You'll want to dress more warmly.

I'll be watching the game.

Still is, but I expect that to change within a few hours. Was nice while it lasted though. I was outside BBQ-ing with no shoes or socks on, then later took the dog for a 3 hour hike.

I really hate ice. It's too cold for rock salt to work. Had to break out the blue stuff, it didn't work much better.

If it gets any warmer, I will have to turn on my AC. I hate temps over 70 degrees. I am a cold weather person and we have had very little this winter.
