Dare I say it.....we may have a train watching weekend! YEA! Maybe all the way up to 40 on Sunday - and sunny.....
Chad - welcome back. Doghouse - sure - I share all chocolate cake, but sometimes it looks a little mauled. But, hey, we are all friends in here, so if it is a little licked it is ok.
Q - I have a male eye doctor - tall, lanky Texan - with an adorable drawl. Yummy.....And my dentist is female - cute, perky and married. Then there is my personal physician - Dr. Dummy. I keep him around cuz he knows better than to argue with me. Well, someone had to graduate at the bottom of their class......

Good Friday morning, everyone. Well, our temp is up to and hovering at 33 degrees F, and we're only getting rain this morning. I am hearing about some areas with trees down on a few roads.
Chad and Dale, glad to see you guys were in last night. Hope to see you both come in a little bit more often!! And Cannonball, good to see you in here last night!!
The following liquids are ready: coffee, hot chocolate, hot cider, hot tea, and oj/oj/tangerine, apple, grape and pineapple juices.
On the warmer bar this morning: turkey bacon, sausages (patties & links, pork & turkey), homemade buttermilk biscuits w/sausage gravy, hash browns, scrambled eggs, oatmeal & toast. (Tomorrow, I'll add grits to the menu.)
Everyone have a great morning, stay warm, and anyone getting the freezing rain, as it goes north of us, be careful and take it slow and easy out there!!
Happy Birthday Quentin.
I guess it is too late to fly you to Fontana for the race Sunday.
All the best.
So the dinner got a name change...interesting.
Happy B-Day Q !!!
.....Thank you very much Cannonball. Greatly appreciate that.
Quentin

.....Hi Tom:
Sorry your "Doc" is a u--- hardside....ha. This gal I mention really is real. One of the partners of the business retired some 15 or so years ago and this young gal right out of school, bought into the position and she has become a very good talented professonal and really is a beautiful gal and a great person.
And thanks for the good words....All the same to you.
....CW:
With a little luck we're not going to see that round of freezing rain, etc. as it's to stay just south of Indy and move east. Now if that's the way it happens, we'll be fine. They are saying this area could see 1 to 3" of the white stuff by tomorrow. That, I can handle. Many years ago while still "home" in Pennsylvania, 3" of snow was hardly a blip on the Winter scene...Didn't even slow us young fellows down much. Now I don't need to go out in it to challange it...{the weather}, it's time for younger ones to do that. I'll enjoy the comfort in here, for example.
Dinningcar:
You are certainly correct, the alternative is not promising if one cares to stay here a bit longer.
We're thankful we've made it this far. Don't know where all the time escaped to....
I do believe that Tom finished all the butter beans and fatback, so all that's left for supper is Mutt's Italian spaghetti casserole w/garlic bread or your can have garlic Texas toast. Plenty of desserts still around, also.
Quentin, we're still getting freezing rain. Didn't see that many snow flurries before it turned into the freezing rain. Actually, I'm not too certain that there wasn't a little bit of sleet mixed in with it this morning, when I was out for my walk, trying to beat the bad weather.
You all take care this evening; stay inside where you're warm and dry.
The bad part about other people having birthdays is that it means I'm getting older, too.
Gotta work late - will have to stop in later for a snack.

....Hey thanks friends....I must confess Jen, my Optometrist is a beautiful gal and very talented so it's not difficult to go there, except writing the check.
CW....Just had a dish of Pecan-carmal ice cream right here at the computer so I better pass on any other goodies now.
Would you believe......77 today.
But still going.....
CW.....That stuff you were talking about down south of us this morning is making itself evident here now in the form of a few small snow flakes.

Aw Quentin - I usually go to the dentist on my birthday. Exciting isn't it!
Happy Birthday from the true Midwest! Many, many more, too!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY QUENTIN!!
Is there a particular sweet dessert you would like to have tonight? If so, let me know, and I'll do my best to get it in here!!
....26.8 degrees right now. No precip here yet today....Overcast, but bright.
This is birthday day.....celebrated by going to scheduled eye Dr. visit and this will produce new glasses to be available by Mar. 4th or sooner.
We are getting snow/freezing rain right now. They closed the middle/high schools at 10, and the elementary schools at 11:20 this morning. Traffic seems to be going pretty smoothly in front of our house. And several businesses are already closing, or will be closing 5 hours early today. The public library will be closing all locations at 2 p.m.
Our current temp is 26.6F, and not sure about wind chill reading.
Tom, your request has been filled, and is on the warmer bar, along with Mutt's Italian spaghetti casserole and garlic bread. Have plenty of garden salad made up and in the cooler.
Desserts today: all the usual cakes, pies and cobblers.
Everyone take care this afternoon, and stay dry, warm and safe!!

Up from -5 overnight, at the airport.
Have to throw my bearclaw on the grill for a moment to warm it up (a little butter brushed on is good, too).
Time for class.
good morning
chilly here this morning.matt and I filled up the bird feeders.from what i heard on the news this morning they took care of the bad satillite.heard there was a paw on the button when they shot it of.just beware.maybe after a quick nap matt and I can go see whats up on csx in town.
CW, the breakfast menu sounds great, I might stop in later this morning and grab a bear claw or a cream-filled roll. I am already pretty well wired, I sat here in my living room last night before going to bed and ate seven chocolate chip cookies which I had purchased at my neighborhood bakery. With all that sugar in my system I am surprised that I didn't wake up with any heart burn.
We have 1 degree above 0 here in Sioux Falls, and the wind chill is at -14 below 0. It is supposed to warm up to about 19 this afternoon.
I have the day off from my job today and I am going to use some of my free time to do a little bit of house cleaning here. I have taken a couple orders for homemade cookies from a couple people I work with at Wendy's, so I stand to make a little money on that. But I want to make sure my kitchen is reasonably clean before I do any baking.
Ray
O chocolate cake, what chocolate cake....?
Dan - it is 6 below wind chill - so you are doing better. Just need some weather stripping now around the door.
Ah spring - 32 today for a high.
Will have a cup of coffee now and try not to look too electrified from all the sweets.....Help yourselves - I am good now for about an hour or so.
