Ok, remember the January thunder and lightning-rain-induced thaw last month? I'm so ready for another thawing out - minus the crazy rain and flooding. They say 40's by Saturday here!! Anyone parking at the curb on our street has had to manage balancing up on two wheels on the frozen snow-ice pack which totally hides the true curb somewhere under there. The plows never did make it back down our street after the last few snow falls, melts, re-freezing so that it looks like a wicked two track for much of the lumpy way. DO NOT attempt to sip coffee while driving this stretch!
The Wii fund raiser was Tuesday in Lansing and it went well. I was surprised at how many people still just like the other offering, which was to toss a little rubber pig into the toilet from 12 feet away. We charged a buck for three trys to put a "pig in the pot"! One lady spent $10 and failed to get the necessary two out of three for a chance at the grand prize, so she hired some guy to do it for her! Gotta love the determination. The grand prize was the Wii itself, plus an extra remote and game set. Long day, but fun.

I'm glad you had another successful year!! Sorry we missed seeing you this time! Did you at least hook up with your newest great-niece!?!
No, unfortunately, it was a total hit-and-run this time.....no leisurely night before set up. And I was under the gun to get the city veh back to the plant. I would have loved to see you all.
Wish I could send you some warm weather from AZ.
