Sam, around here, we frown on truck stop encounters. :p

Mid 70's the last few days, partly sunny. I was outside last night until around 10:00 PM and it was still above 60 degrees. :)

Here in Chicago, we're about to get hit with a blizzard in the next few hours, as well as the rest of the Midwest.
This is the windy city. You know what happens when you mix a blizzard, lake Michigan and wind, don't you?

Coldddddd!

I remember those days well, p5bdkw! I grew up not far from Chicago to the East of Lake Michigan. The lake-effect snow and wind would create 20 foot high drifts. I do miss the snow skiing, however. :)

Tews, they're not "snowbirds" until they come to Florida on vacation or to reside for the Winter. I welcome them with open arms. :D
