This week FL was cold. I stayed at a favourite place in Savannah first but by the time I got accross the panhandle and into Bilouxi it was balmy and in the 70's. I like that town. Then I had to head for the cold again in Memphsis but for most of you thats sounds warsm I guess (+32degrees F). Yup, John an almost Dell. We'll see. I'm not puter savy and stsarted on a Mac that I won at work while I was still in VT but quickly changed to other PCs for the cost and when windows was perfected I was happy. I can read all those formulas but I just like to click n go. Richard, sound like NOT fun that room. Sound like old says in the frat house maybe, interesting. Going land hunting this w'e with my neighbours. We want to get a 100 or so acre tract somewhere outside metro and do something with it later in the future. Use it for hunting now I guess. Ciao for now....

I guess it is good to have a break in the weather once in a while.............I was thinking about hot weather in summer yesterday............hard to imagine we will get to that again. Have a good weekend.........

You guys travelling to the kind of weather that Lori has every day sounds so nice. I think that cabin fever has come to Burlington about 1 month early because of all the cold weather. Remember to have fun. I hope you hit deep relaxation on the very first day.

We are planning on going to FL, drive down the east coast and see people along the way, may be able to get out to LA, TX, and MO as well..........have to see how the time goes. I like to drive, so that is a good thing and really like having the flexibility of changing plans and doing something else. Have been wall papering the bathroom and it is finally done........looks pretty good, if I must say. Hope everyone is thawing out now with the "warmer" weather. I had friends in FL complaining about the cold as well. Bet they thought they never would see that happen.

We're having a heat wave........A tropical heat wave.......... High of 20 today, first time out of single digits since December. Yummy!! Dave is going to Miami in early March and I am going to go with him. I'll beach it while he is in air conditioned meeting rooms. We're flying down together but couldn't get matching flights back so we're part way together, separating in Phili and meeting back up in Boston for the flight back to P.I. I'm really looking forward to being too darn hot! My dad lives in Plant City, FL. He told me this evening it's 70's there. Very pleasant.

Sounds like my days--dry cleaner, grocery store, etc.etc. But tonight my sister Amy is arriving from Israel, so I'm excited about that! She'll be here for 2 weeks.

George W was in town today but didn't get to see him. He breezed in and out, two stops and the tickets went fast. I guess there were some protesters and small traffic tie-ups. My day was much more mundane.........dry cleaners, doctor's, grocery store, post office, etc. Temps in the mid twenties today, clear and sunny.

Should I rub it in your noses again how warm I am in sunny California?!! Nice to see you surfaced again, Karen. I was about to ask where you had disappeared to.

Hi Everyone! Not much to report from Michigan..........cold, cold and cold. Haven't had nearly the snow or cold of Vermont though. Still, I am ready for spring. Rich is headed for FL for a long weekend to see his parents. I have to stay with my teen boys because being new to the area, we don't have other people to check on things. Patty, hope things are going better for you. Bring on February.....one month closer to warm weather!

I just spent the weekend on Galveston Island locked in a room with sales people. Alcohol unlocks some stuff that just never should have gotten into the cage to begin with, if you know what I mean. Sure is good to get back into the controlled playful atmosphere of engineers who play pin the mechanical pencil on the pocket protector when things get really wild. Tame? Yes, but I'll take it.

Dude your getting a almost like Dell>>>>>

Couldn't resist that one. Nothing new on my side of the river. Roland good to hear from you. It took me awhile to figure out who you were.
But like you said with internet access, it's a small world. Lori you must be the only one right now that is warm. Well just thought I would
touch base and say hi to all.
