At this point, I’d even settle for Edmonton…

Joe: It was also great seeing you, though your wish for snow is deranged! :-)

Matt: May you sunburn the soles of your feet! :-)

What I would give to have your weather here in TX! It was a great time that I had with you and Ken, I only wish that we had about a foot of snow in D.C.

Take Care
Joe

I’ve missed this kind of winter. Admit it, the white, the cold, the blue sky — it’s a kind of breathtaking beauty you never get when it’s warmer and everything is GREY and SLUSHY!

Besides, the cold and snow make everyone slow down, and foster a great sense of community.

Although perhaps our outlooks on the weather differ because MY kids are old enough to do all the shovelling and yours aren’t?

BWAHAHAHA!!!

“Curse you, Al Gore!!!”

“The fourth angel poured his bowl on the sun, and it was allowed to scorch them with fire; they were scorched by the fierce heat, but they cursed the name of God, who had authority over these plagues, and they did not repent and give him glory.” Rev 16:8-9.
