Miss Kitty, get out your thermal underwear

[DD]

Jackie just called from up your way, LD Bell High School area. They had a practice for tomorrow nights Regional Band concert. She was disappointed 'cause they cancelled it. Seems the forcast is ICE tomorrow night!

I grew up in the midwest and used to NOT be such a wimp. Now---I gotta say I don't want COLD weather. And I don't want ice. Snow would be OK though. --if it's gonna be cold, it may as well snow!

I hate the cold too..but you're right, if it's gonna be cold, snow would be nice. Ice is not nice.

And I sent Bill !! I just asked him to stop by for bread and bagels on his way back from recycling the papers - then I remembered maybe a couple other things and he says "This is starting to sound more like a list - should I get a piece of paper?" So I shut up about then ....
