News from the frozen tundra

There has been enough media coverage of the weather so I don't want to belabor the point except to say the by tomorrow we should be coming out of this dismal weather pattern.

 I got so stir crazy that I had to get out today and luckily everything went fine (yea for remote start and seat warmers). Just had to get out of the house after 4 days of being stuck inside. 

South Carolinians are complaining of 40 degree temps but let's talk to Emma in Chicago where it is so bitter that the river has frozen over and they are having "frost quakes"

Here is a picture of my garden in spring to cheer us all up and give us something to look forward to. Just booked my trip to Myrtle Beach for the last week in March and am so looking forward to the sunshine and the azaleas.

Not a lot of new for this month......I hope you all had a Happy New Year and also enjoy the Superbowl this Sunday. Let's all send prayers that New England and Brady get a tromping!

Tim's Aura

Now this is an interesting story. A person's aura tells a lot about them. It is an emanation surrounding the body of a living creature and regarded as an essential part of the individual. "emotional, mental, and spiritual levels form an energy field around the body known as the aura" and this is Tim's. Don't know what all the colors mean but the fact that they are so vivid does say that there is a lot of energy there. Tim, we need to go to the temple.

Mojave Desert

 29 Palms, California....where Sean will be studying for the next four months. He's going to do the same radio work that his Dad did when he was in the corp. You can see the base sitting in the middle of nowhere.

 This is Sean in the rec center with a new friend. They look pretty happy.

A Country Lane

 This was a tree....

This is the tree now......lots of firewood for the fireplace!

  TB .....John and Mary

Thinking of my Mom and Dad a lot lately. Here they are at Harding Park. I think that swing set is still there. Maybe around 1940

See you next month. Send me news and pictures and stay warm everyone!
