I am beyond spoiled...the one thing I love about this place is the sun..it shines no matter the temp...I had enough "grey" winters in Md to last me a lifetime...the sun makes you happy whatever your problems.
My brother moved here two years ago from VA. Right after moving he found out he cancer.. said he rather be sick where it is warm then freezing..he is doing well now and said the sun made him feel better when he was at his worst...BUT we have to take the storms with the sun...one little snag in paradise. LOL

70's!!!???? What I wouldn't give for that right now. It is -16 with -40 windchill in my town right now (Minnesota), AprilLove rings the bell to go outside, I open the door, she gets a whiff of the cold then runs to her pottybox INSIDE! lol

alaskayorkie · 02-04-2007, 10:14 AM

Wow, -47! And if that's celsius, that's -52 F!

We had a record high of plus 48 F a couple days ago. Now it's settled into a more normal 20s. Hang in there!

Tophersmom · 02-05-2007, 05:33 AM

Oh, Villette...that's hilarious. We went on a long drive yesterday to pick up our daughter at a friend's house (2 hours each way) so I didn't see your post till this morning....sure did put a smile on my face for the day.

It's -26 this morning but with the wind chill it's alot colder....sure do have to bundle son up to go to school. He's not happy to go out in the cold, let me tell you. Can't say that I blame him!

mistyinca · 02-05-2007, 05:39 AM

The poor palm trees would die in that weather! LOL

Seriously, it got in the 20's here for almost a week. Hey, don't laugh

; this is cold for us here. Anyway, my pygmy date palms look like they're dead now.

YORKIEMOM2B2006 · 02-05-2007, 05:40 AM

it is 6 degrees here with a windchill of -11..... brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

chachi · 02-05-2007, 05:45 AM

It is -19 here and the schools closed today

Tophersmom · 02-05-2007, 05:48 AM

They closed the schools in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, which is about 5 minutes from me, but they RARELY close the schools here in Canada unless it's virtually impossible to get to the school. It's terrible. The kids shouldn't have to walk in this cold.

WOW. I don't think I could even leave my house in that kind of weather. I'll be happy to add YOU to the beach picture anytime - that must make you just drool.....

That is awful that they dont close the schools. That is dangerous cold weater. I went out yesterday and just walking from My car into a restaurant and grocery store My fingers and hands were burning and red. My ears were sore from the cold too

YorkieMom55 · 02-05-2007, 07:10 AM

It's warmed up to 8.8* this morning. I think every school here along the lake is closed today also. Chuck used the snow blower to path out the back yard for our little kids. The doggie door flap had frost on the inside yesterday and was kind of hard for them to open. We have a "garage" over it on the outside so it doesn't get the direct wind and snow. It finally thawed out. Life's just a barrel of flying monkeys around here sometimes.
Our friends, who are living on a sailboat in Panama, called and said they're tired of 90's in the morning when they get up....boohoo...

WundrWmn · 02-05-2007, 08:11 AM

We're suppose to reach 78 here today and in the 80's the next few days.....thought I'd share the palm trees with ya folks...this is our back yard for the winter months...and of course the beautiful Colorado River sunset

Doodlebug · 02-05-2007, 08:28 AM

I guess we are having a heat wave here compared to some of you. It was 7 degrees when I got up. I can't get up to check the temp now bec Daisy is asleep on my lap now.

Villette, that pic is just adorable!

JESSY_RN2B · 02-05-2007, 10:16 AM

It's in the minus here too! I am getting fat eating all this soup and hot cocoa

.........lol

furby2000 · 02-05-2007, 10:25 AM
