WOW!!!! Sounds so nice

6:47 am

6:55 am

Trifioso

we are a weird bunch, us new England folks. We don't feel quite ourselves if we don't suffer through a brutal winter. Like we lose our definition, or something

6:56 am

Think of the people in N. Dakota. We must be thought of as wusses

Aloyisius

I fixed ribs for dinner, haven't had them in ages -no, you are right.. only weather problem we have is severe drought here, and the salinity of the well water precludes irrigation, so - not good. On the other hand, days are bright and sunny after the morning fog burns off.
