Winter wonderland

I see by the news today that there is an ice storm that has shut down travel from Texas to New Hampshire. 12 people dead in traffic accidents attributed to the weather. Airports shut down in Chicago and Oklahoma City. I guess it's really winter.


Way down yonder in New Orleans, it has been in the 80s for the last several days. I had a Christmas open house on Saturday and had to keep the a/c blasting so people who had come in their Christmas clothes wouldn't die of heat stroke. Mind you, we are breaking records for high temperatures right now. This is not your typical December weather.


But it is incredible that you don't have to go too far north to hit a massive ice storm.


And you wonder why we crazy people continue to live here. August is the pits, but we love winter.


Y'all come down. Mardi Gras is the first Tuesday in February.
