Crappy weather....
Hope all of 2014 isn't going to be like today and the last several days. Just downright crappy out. Kind of chilly with rain off an on. Right before Christmas we got really dumped on. Our road would have been great for mud boggers. Just cold (to my Florida acclimated blood anyway) rainy, and dreary out...
Got the battery tenders on the vettes as they aren't going to be going anywhere for a while, I guess. I'd be scraping mud out from underneath them for days.

Yeah, nothing better than salt slush getting sprayed all up underneath your car..... 
I'm looking at the forecast (such that it is) and it looks like a few cold nights coming up. Have to break out the tarps again to cover the more sensitive stuff.
But still, a WHOLE LOT better than if I was back living in Maryland.

Took this shot off of the TV last nite.......
I'm right smack dab in the purple area.
18*F @6:55PM. It's coming down at a pretty good clip right now, and I've
shoveled the driveway twice and had it plowed once already by my neighbor.
If I didn't live here I would be shivering at the picture. LOL

A kid from my son's high school baseball team recently moved with his family from here in FL, to IL.
He just spoke with my son and said he left FL's 75+ degree temps  to go to IL's 1 degree temp. 
I dunno 'bout you, but in my book, that really sucks.

There is nothing ANYONE could offer me to entice me to move up there.
Connie is talking about wanting to go up to Delaware next Christmas. Man, I dunno about that..... I sure hope that they have an unseasonably warm spell coming through about then.

I moved here from Illinois.
The only thing I liked about winter up there was the K-Mart parking lot after an ice storm.

It went down to 31 degrees on our front porch overnight. Supposed to hit 28 degrees tonight. Since it is only 41 degrees out right now at 1:30pm, I think it might go lower. Calling for more sub-freezing temps Monday and Tuesday night as well.
Yuch..... Belize is looking more and more attractive to me.
