Thankfully, it's warmed up enough that I think it's going to just be rain instead. <br /><br />Rain, I can deal with. <br /><br />It's only 10:30 AM, but it's already 36 degrees here. A virtual heat wave! :)Bridgetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04844738855874754351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-68931667629245904182010-02-17T14:10:08.424-06:002010-02-17T14:10:08.424-06:00Our winter has been colder than usual too, with mo...Our winter has been colder than usual too, with more snow.

Then last night we tried to stand on the porch and both jumped in when we felt the intense wind (cold and rainy).<br /><br />Hang in there!!
