A low of 19 degrees overnight. That is the highest low I've seen in a couple weeks. NOT looking forward to the coming rain, though.

Good morning. Bright and brisk here. The weather that is.

Well, that surely does NOT describe me!

It's not going to thaw like I thought it would. Bummer.

Hubby would never move farther south. He hates heat and humidity. Probably more than I hate the cold.

I'd know never to suggest that zone. He also likes snow in the winter for cross country skiing.

What about Colorado? We lived there for a couple of years a couple of decades ago and I remember loving the weather there. We'd get dumped on with a couple of feet of snow, but the next day most would melt away. I remember one winter never needing my winter parka. If you want to ski, it's a half hour or so to the slopes.

Someone told me that I have the best fishing spot in the county on my property, right under a dam. I have never gone fishing.

We have a trout stream down a steep hill on our property that stays open all winter. I have never fished it, and I call myself a fisherman.

Don't need a worm for sunfish. just flatten out a piece of fresh bread where it will wobble as it sinks. Don't use any added weight. Just let it sink on its own and see what happens. I used to do that and it really PO's the rich kids who had the latest greatest tackle and could not catch the fish like I was.

Or a can of corn.

I didn’t realize it was so mild
