It's nice to have electricity again.

Tim, it's good to hear you're OK. The news here, last night, inspired me
to give
you some advice:

Don't drive to downtown Chicago.

Thanks for the tip, John. But i dont' like driving there in good
weather...

Actually the weather is quite calm here. very light show and the wind
is done or a while. But tonight it's back down into the low teens for
a low (if in lower) *Ah February is here!

We are seeing cold weather also. *Was only 58 this morning when I went to
the hardware store.

5 here as we speak. Yeah, I'd love to have some of your cold temps
for a day

Tim, it gets cold in the Bay Area, trust me.

Reply: Supposed to be 76 this weekend. But should rain soon as the
Flowering Pear tree is blooming, and that always causes rain.

Man, this winter rux!!!

"It's winter in Illinois And the gentle breezes blow Seventy miles an
hour At five below. Oh, how I love Illinois When the snow's up to
your butt You take a breath of winter And your nose gets frozen shut.

Yes, The weather here is wonderful So I guess I'll hang around

I could never leave Illinois Cuz I'm frozen to the ground!

Friend of the wife called from DeKalb, IL. Wife is working in the front
yard, getting out leaves and weeds around the blooming daffodils. Friend
in IL says it is 5 degrees and a foot or so of snow still. Was drifted up
6' high on their front door during the storm. Audrey is looking forward to
visiting next week. :)))
