I'm with you! We've a wood stove and it gets fired up early in the season!

If it drops below 70 I put on a parka!

Whimps!

You guys don't know what cold is until you lived in Omaha, NE. 70 degrees is when we broke out the shorts!

sometimes when i read gallo's posts, i feel like i am back in college in chem 152 which i took THREE TIMES, three semesters back to back and i still failed each time with a big fat F because i couldn't understand what in the world he was saying. i had tutors galore, never helped.

gallo, my brain just does not process your knowledge. were you my chem professor at NAU?

Ha ha! My Chem professor at NAU was horrible, too. The class average was a D. He actually apologized for being a bad teacher! He had another professor come in and take over mid-semester. Maybe we were in the same class.

Ha, ha! I loved chemistry and biology. Organic was another story. Organic lab was fun, though. We made stuff like aspirin and citrus oil.

Our heater hasn't worked in a few years. My husband didn't tell me this when I married him.

I just thought he loved freezing me out while we were sleeping.
We now have a propane fireplace ( since we caught the roof on fire two years ago and the insurance rebuilt our entire house while we lived in an RV, too bad our AC/heat weren't damaged:he), and I love the fireplace. Wish the bedroom was big enough to knock the wall open and have the fireplace on both desires. It has a blower and really does a nice job heating a large portion of the house, except the bedroom. We still need a space heater in the bedroom when it's reall, really cold, like if the temperature outside is well below freezing.
That doesn't happen very often.
I'm pushing for Montana after watching a movie in Montana. But, it was only 17 degrees in OK this morning so I guess that's nice. I just wish they had cooler summers. Really miss those Boulder summers that I grew up with. It was boiling hot if we had to put the box fan on and it got over 100 maybe four times a summer.
Showlow was nice, lived there from December to June one year. Had a great snowstorm with 40" of snow. Loved it!

We got seasons! For the next 9 months it will be beautiful weather - then hot as heck for three - rinse & repeat

Mikey, Mikey. Seasons are when you have beautiful red leaves on the maple trees, cool autumn nights, snow in the winter, skiing and sledding, redbuds in the spring, tornado season and spring storms, then a two to three month summer before it all starts over again.
I used to be in a skiing club in CO and could hardly wait until the mountains had enough snow for the ski areas to open up. We'd schedule our afternoon classes to be easy in winter ( the only season I didn't have a sport) and ditch class to go up to Eldora for night skiing.
Winter is also fox hunting season. Trouble with fox hunting around here is that it's so dry there's no scent so the hounds have a terrible time, plus the rattlesnakes are out until it really cools off.
Winter is good times!

Mmm, cinnamon raisin bread. I usually do one loaf whole wheat and one loaf cinnamon raisin bread. Easy to do one dough and two loaves that way.
I need to refresh my sourdough. I've been doing yeast bread lately because my sourdough doesn't work so well in the summer. But I make a wonderfull 100% rye and also a sandwich rye. I need the sourdough starter for that. I hope I didn't kill it with neglect, I'll have to start a new one!

Yeah, used to do missile call near Omaha. It's nippy up there!
I was coming in from collecting eggs today and set my bucket down to turn off the water. My Doberman must have swiped an egg! I went to put the eggs in the fridge and thought I was short. Went to put the bucket back out on the porch and Lucy's eating an egg, the whole darn thing! That stinker!
