So I walk past my computer and glance at the sidebar where I have current weather conditions for home and where each of the girls are at school. I was expecting the snow icon for here, and for Duluth, but Portland? So I looked it up and this is what I found:

So for the most part we all get to share the same weather. Lucky DTE gets to miss the freezing rain on top of snow. Oh, and we might just need to do something about the weather stripping on the garage door.
Wow! Look at all that! Send some of it down here! Can't wait to see the finished scarf.
ReplyDeleteStay warm!
Forecast for us is 76 and "abundant sunshine." We got just over an inch of rain in a 36-hour period. Amazingly, no flooding in the burn areas.
ReplyDeleteI love your garage door! Any mices come in with the snow?
The heck with the snow coming in...I worry about mice! We've got the same deal going with our garage door. BLECH.
ReplyDeleteCan we really pack it up and mail it somewhere else? I'm SO in!
