I love that deer blind!<BR/><BR/>You want to call me out on being a total cry-baby wimp when it comes to weather, don't you. I confess. I don't know anything about real winter. I have lived a sheltered life. But, hey, it's relative. From my perspective, this here is serious winter.Anita Jessehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09671820780634003286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018576996941070707.post-517320415766579372009-02-22T14:19:00.000-08:002009-02-22T14:19:00.000-08:00I'd appreciate a photo essay on the meaning of win...I'd appreciate a photo essay on the meaning of winter in your neck of the woods, it's kind of a thing I'm on. Sounds like you might be a new comer to winters.<BR/>Congrats on retirement, I suspect this means that you will now have more things you want to do rather than less.<BR/>By the way you have a quaint way of referring to "The Husband".bob wonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16584034542362283401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018576996941070707.post-23695282207915811392009-01-08T07:36:00.000-08:002009-01-08T07:36:00.000-08:00Paul - You know that was just my jealousy talking....Paul - You know that was just my jealousy talking. I have to admit that, while this place is gorgeous and I am happy to be here, I am struggling mightily to adjust to having honest-to-goodness winter weather. I am so typical of a Texan (central Texas) and a southern Californian in that I find 60 degrees "a little chilly". Anything below 50 is downright intolerable.Anita Jessehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09671820780634003286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018576996941070707.post-48230525334508581912009-01-08T03:48:00.000-08:002009-01-08T03:48:00.000-08:00:-) But I said that it was a beautiful scene!

Now would I rub it in on Mark, up there freezing in Michigan that we don't have much more snow left and today it hit the low 50's? 70 degrees! Harrumph.
