The Hobo Camp Fire Is going well #X.. Stop In!!!

Greetings, gang.

24 going to maybe the low to mid 30s after an overnight dusting of light snow. Not even enough to shovel (yay!). 40s and low 50s through mid week.

Yesterday started out routine with a quick trip to Walmart. On the way I noticed the price at the gouging gas station jumped from $2.27 to $2.69 I quickly made a detour and fortunately my preferred gas station was still at $2.27. By the time I came back to town after a basketball game everyone was at the higher price.

Apparently I got a little too close to one (or more) of the mobile germ factories (aka great-grandkids and their friends) and now have a lovely cold. Already had my first dose of Emergen-C. Hopefully I can avoid the worst of it. Gonna skip the great-grandson's birthday party. Lots of kids and elderly people there. I don't need to be spreading this around.

All stay safe.

Greetings, gang.

Lots of sunshine today with mild temperatures. 47 with light south winds. 50 for tomorrow then our very good friends at the National Weather Service have decreed that we need one of those nefarious fronts so tomorrow night the wind will shift to the north at around 30 mph, dropping the temperature to the low 20s for a few days.

Slowly recovering from my cold. I've been sleeping 8 and 9 hours a night along with naps during the day. This afternoon is the first of four out of five days this week with activities for the great-grandkids. Only day off is Wednesday.

All stay safe.

Greetings, gang.

It's currently 21 degrees under partly cloudy skies with a wind chill of 9. Quite a change from yesterday's high of 50. Even colder here by the weekend.

Very brief basketball game yesterday. Started at 4:15 and over by 4:50. Two more this week - Thursday and Friday. Also a band concert tomorrow morning at 8:15. In other news I discovered a broke tooth. After having some Cheezits I was trying to clean my gums and discover part of a tooth missing. Guess I'll be heading to a dentist for the first time in over 25 years. Without dental insurance this could get a little pricey.

Jim - glad to hear garage is now safe for year around work.

Gas holding at $2.69

All stay safe.

Hello Blue.
Thought I'd leave a few words. Temp is 36 but dropping thru the day. Then it will stay cold for way too long.
My wife got a JC Penny gift card. The local store is attached to a dying mall, so I took her there wanting her to use the card before they suddenly close. 
Those of you that have been married know what happened. Yep, we came home with nothing. I was not in the mood to shop, she says.
