Thanks. We did our first meal Sunday with the Castle Rock crew before they went home. Today we went up to Dothan AL to our friends house for round two. Tomorrow we all gather at my work (since we are closed for the holiday, I use the big room) for the final eating.

Very nice! You'll have to do a lot of miles in the woods to walk off all that lol

It was hard to get outside with the cold, but I got in 5 miles Thursday night and 3.5 last night.
I am dragging this morning. Getting everything to town, getting the room setup, a couple hours of eating, then take down and cleanup, and getting it all back home was a job of work. Now we have just over a month to get the house ready for New Year's. We skipped last year, but the year before there were about 25-30 folks here. Knowing us we won't do anything until about a week before.
go go kid

I feel for you. It's never fun having your shed roof in the front yard. We got lucky the first week after Micheal in that there was no rain. But it's been three years now and I've only got two of the 12 damaged sheds and barns on the farm repaired.

We broke a record high temperature today. It got up to 62°F. The average is 50° and the previous record was 59°. I was out in a t-shirt doing yard work and it's almost December. Mt Hood Meadows pushed back their opening date for skiing because they don't have any snow. It had snowed but the freezing level has really dropped lately.

It was cold for a couple of days last week and then back to warm days and mild nights around here. Fuckin' creepy; it's like I should be in New Mexico, eating Hatch Chiles instead of northern Colorado.

Same here. It's the first day of winter and it's 54°F and sunny. It's supposed to get close to 60°F today. In a couple hours I'll be out in a t-shirt mowing the lawn and doing other yardwork.

Technically the first day of winter is the 21st of December but nitpicks aside, I agree that things are staying strangely warm far later than they should.

I was just going by what they were saying on the Weather Channel this morning.
I see that there is a meteorological which is December 1st and an astronomical which is December 21st the winter solstice. But yeah it's crazy warm for this time of year.

I'm starting to wonder about those wacky kids down at the Weather Channel; first they start naming storms as if they're an official government agency and now they're playing with the calendar...

And my next scheduled hair cut. I've cut my own hair since 1983, and about three months is the right length of time between trims, so I just do it on the change of the seasons.

I started shaving my head years ago when my hair started thinning out. I sure don't miss it.

About half of it is gray now but it's still all there so I'm guilt tripped into keeping it lol
