well it was so nice here that I went outside in a short sleeve shirt.
And to think I used to like you! I can't remember the last time it was ever this cold. Thermometer in full sun at noon said -8F, and it's windy, too! I had my car heat going full blast the whole way home, and I was still chilly.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm really glad I'm not going to the Pats game tomorrow night! It hurts to breathe out there.

Johnny, I hope you're wife is okay ~ please keep us posted. And don't forget to post those tank test results when you have them.

Okay, now I'm mad. I just looked up the weather for Anchorage, AK, and they're about 30 degrees warmer than we are. What's up with that? LOL

Warm enough to rain here! 36 degrees out!

Got several nice Zoanthus frags from the Seaorg and Blane Perun. They seem to be adapting well and were starting to open yesterday. Will see whats going on this evening after a full day of tank acclimation!

Will post pictures when I can borrow the digital from my daughter.

TGIF for all you workin' stiffs and stiffettes!

I know what you mean. My son let the wood stove go out while I was in town. It'll take a while to heat up the house now.

I'm thinking that the tank needs a good cleaning. At least that will warm up my hands. LOL
