Hey, good morning. Nice day for something, eh? Music, job interview, ordering roof materials from HD, canceling selected credit cards, organizing an intervention for my son, all fun stuff. Wishing everyone a super day, OK?
The outside dog water bowl has a 1/4" of ice onnit. Cold for Northern California.

Morning. Only a high of 38 today, but it already feels like 50 or 60. Maybe that's because of the cold weather we had last week and over the weekend?

Good morning, supposed to approach 60 today but it's windy and raining so I think golf is off. It's supposed to be warm and less windy toward the end of the week. Not bad for January. No snow. I'll take it. This is what the weather service says is "Normal" around here.

Good morning. Cold front hits this morning which should keeps us in winter weather for this area the rest of the week. I'm going to take the time and work on some music, mostly mandolin but guitar too.

More thoughts and prayers headed to you and your family, Bob.
After bragging this weekend about how I don't get sick all that often, I feel sick.

Thanks for the prayers and kind thoughts, good people. I'm doing OK, despite all the challenges. Watching the Australian Open, good stuff.

Outstanding photo, Don. You've got a knack for moving the eye in subtle but meaningful ways.

Mornin'.....
Don - that really is a fine shot. You could title it "Hope".....with the little patch of blue sky on the horizon.
Kind of a casual day of odd jobs around here whilst I wait for the afternoon departure back to Lakin, Ks. (where we were last night) for the 2nd round of basketball tournament play. Ty's Cimarron Bluejay's took out the Satanta Indians (no relation to Carlos). They will play Southwestern Heights this afternoon at 5:00. Final round will be Saturday.
