Well the most we got so far is some rain. I tahnk my lucky stars that I
don't live in the greater LA area or San Diego County, (BTW, Did Matt Swift
make it OK? I know the lady who owns Island Delights was burned down. Lost
everything)

I turned up the heat in the gh, started sweeping up and general cleaning,
watered, malathioned ants.

Then noticed a sagging bench. Looked underneath at the metal support and
you'd a thought you were looking at the rust dripping from the Titanic...
[sob!] Looks like I got my work cut out for me this winter. Re-building
benches. Drat.

I hate winter, and it ain't even winter yet.

Yes it is.

We (in south-central Ontario) have already had one storm, and no sooner
did
the snow from that melt away do we get more. As of right now, it has been
snowing for a day and a half, with no sign of letting up. We have so far
accumulated several centimeters of snow on the ground. It is sooooooooo
pretty. I wish I had a digital camera so I could show you. ;-)

On the brighter side, the long term weather prognosticaters here claim it
will be a mild one.

Cheers,

Ted
