Hi Potties! The weather wasn't as awful as expected. There was a trace of snow on the deck late Fri. afternoon. It didn't stay around too long. The cold topped out about 8am on Sat. According to the report on the weather channel for my zip code the lowest actual temp was 23* with a wind chill factor of 12*. The wind wasn't as bad as expected - none of the 30+ mph gusts I was expecting. I made it a point to put out birdseed as soon as it was getting light on Fri. & Sat. - the birds took full advantage of the early meal. I'll do the same thing before I call it quits for tonight.
Max did you have any falling iguanas? They weren't around when I lived in FL so I can't imagine having to "dispose" of them. I'm glad you were able to get your furnace repaired before the cold hit.
Max & Gordon - I saw on TV about that PA bridge collapse. It's a wonder nobody was seriously hurt. I found it interesting that Biden was visiting the state later that day. Too bad it didn't happen before congress was voting on the bill to start repairing the damaged infrastructure. At least he can tell the folks who didn't vote for the bill that "I told you so",
I haven't checked on the fish since it got so cold. It's to be in the 50's Sun. afternoon so that should start them thawing. I may go up to check the mail between games so I can put out my 2 bills for pick-up. I'm hoping to make a run on Wed. to pay the booth rent & U-Haul payment. It will be waaaaaaay warmer this coming week than it was the last few days. Katie, what was it like out your way? I'm pretty sure Shelly got her share of cold & maybe a fair bit of snow.
Fed the zoo a little earlier so guess I'll move back to the bed with a book or 2. Have to be sure & be up by 3PM for the 1st game. It's gonna be a long 6+ months before football comes back. I'll just make do with the Olympics (the winter version is my favorite) & the NASCAR season.
Everybody take care & stay warm. Spring is bound to come eventually. Later.
Susan
