So here's it's been in the 40s, and now that my Mom is coming to town tonight for the weekend (she who is freezing when it's 58 -- she lives in Tampa), it's going to be 15 degrees. It just bums me out, because ever since Dad passed away, we've wanted her to move north, but she won't because "it's just too cold." I've tried to convince her that "winter is just something that happens between your front door and your car," but she' not buying it.

Once again, we'll do our best to take her around town while she's here and show her all the things she's missing by continuing to live down there in Jimmy Buffet Land.

Happy Thanksgiving everybody.
