The Storm Wasn't a Beast Here

Yes, it snowed; then there was some ice; then it snowed again but it did not add up to a crippling storm.

Actually the weather provided me with a laugh. My California brother sent me the following email:

I think you should put this in your next blog. Your "favorite" brother does not understand why you and our younger sister live in such cold weather. You are both very, very intelligent with a lot more brains than I have, so why do you live there. Let me tell you about my day yesterday. I started out with a flannel shirt and a vest, but within 30 minutes of pruning our apple tree I had to remove the vest and should have gone in and put a t-shirt on because I was perspiring. By the time I got the trimmings loaded in my truck to take them to the green waste recycling, I was so hot that I had to drink 3 large glasses of water. I'll have to admit the nights are a little nippy, but I did not freeze my ears or have frozen feet from being outside yesterday.

Your weather is awful!


To my favorite brother, could it be that my sister and I are made of stronger stuff?
