[size=large]Last night the weather took a turn for the worst and it was
all coming from Oklahoma ... pretty sure Allen sent it....

This morning the sun came out ( 21 degrees ) but it is a very pretty day !!!
Made for some nice pics and I thought I'd share them with you.
Hope everyone has a great day today !!!

[size=x-large]a final pic from the middle of the driveway...
About as done as it is going to get.
If I try to do any better I'd tear into the gravel driveway.
you can see our new puppy snuck into a pic or 2...
Have a great day everyone !!!![/size]

and they almost cancelled all the catered parties for Friday night, and just opened up for Dinner Service, originally for <b>TWO</b> people! We ended up serving nine people. I was able to get some prep done for parties on Saturday.

Everybody at work was asking me if I brought all this with me, or if I thought I was back in Michigan! Heck, I even pulled out my Capote and wore that for a coat yesterday! I didn't think I'd be wearing that again since we moved down here.

This morning, it was 10 degrees when I got up. I got a nice pic of some frost on the trees. It looks really neat.

Once this stuff melts off, we might have some good detecting, if I can get out. I've also heard that we might get a repeat storm next week.

I'm only 2 1/2 hours from you. (just above Springfield).
Maybe sometime in the future we can meet up and detect somewhere.
take care,
