artic freeze and never say never


some old sayings are just old sayings, but some old sayings have some truth. red sky at night sailor's delight~
red sky at morning sailor's take warning.

after this hazy red prairie sunrise, we have had, it seems like, ages of cold, snow, and no sun. i had to go out and buy a parka so i wouldn't freeze on the two block walk to work.

for a person who needs the sun to be cheery it is dreadful.

i said i was never going to retire where it was cold....so what did i do... i bought a house 100 miles farther north than i live now that generates it own little storms and weather patterns. .... just north of the black hills.
