I'm Happy and The Cold Front Comes Through

DeBary, FL.

42 deg. mostly cloudy, light W. wind.

Forecast = Sunny in the morning...then becoming partly sunny. Highs in the mid 60s. North winds 10 to 15 mph becoming northeast 10 mph.


Jim was able to spend some time outside yesterday without getting bit up by mosquitoes. There was a little more wind, so I guess that's what kept them away.

It was while he was outside, that he started talking to Mike, (the man who lives in the permanent RV on my left), and found out that he was looking for a TV for his grand kids to watch. Well, I've been hauling around a 13" color TV that Myrddin had in his basement ever since Jim and Linda bought me, so Jim told Mike that he could have it.

Mike was real happy, his grand kids will be real happy, and I'm real happy that I don't have to lug that thing around anymore!! ; )

After Jim gave Mike the TV he rearranged a few things in the basement compartment where the TV had been. There's actually a little room in there now. : )

The cold front that has been sweeping across the country finally arrived here yesterday afternoon. It came through while Jim was cooking some burgers on the grill for dinner. In fact, when Jim went out to light the grill at about 4:30, it was cloudy and 81 degrees. As he was cooking the burgers wind picked up and the temperature started to drop. By the time the burgers were done, (just a little over 1/2 hour later), the temperature had dropped to 67 degrees, the wind had picked up, and there was light drizzle.

This morning, the temperature is down to 42 degrees. That's almost 20 degrees colder than it was at this time yesterday. : (

Don't know what's going to happen today. Linda has some stuff on the computer that she needs to print off, so Jim may help her with that. He probably won't be outside a real lot because the weather isn't supposed to be too nice.

A Point to Ponder : On a telephone, why does ABC start on  the number 2 and not number 1?
