| Moderator   | Good Morning RS! Good morning all. It's 32 degrees here. Looks like we're going to miss the big ice storm/snow event. Temps too high. Have a picture in the name that critter section that we were able to get last night. This guy has been making his way in and out of the rock work. If it's what I think it is, I am assuming it's a good thing? Everyone have a great day and stay safe! |

| Achilles Tang  |  Good morning. Rain, Rain, Rain. I love it - washes the grit off the streets, cleans my car, makes the hills turn green. But there has been so much lately that some outlying areas are facing flooding.Long week. Doing a volunteer training tonight, board meeting tomorrow night, hosting regional meeting Thursday... augh! I'm staying just about 6 hours ahead of showtime getting everything together. Using my new microwave approach to heating top off water. LOVE the convenience of it. Have a good one.

| DIY Moderator  | A cold blistering 8* outside today. Good day to play hookie from work and play with the tank. But, duty calls, the book work never seems to go away. Of coarse neither does "Uncle Sam".

| Elegance coral | Well right after I posted this morning my lap top from work crashed. 3 hours later I get it a new one, just changed out the HD. I was lucky I still have all my data, time to back up my PC.
