Oh, you guys made me spit my coffee out I was laughing so much at the "So does this mean that H**L has frozen over?" over comment. I still remember the post card I had hanging on my fridge during most of the time I lived in AZ:
"Tempe Arizona... Home of the Sun Devils; two miles from H**L" (showing a half dead coyote lying on the ground).
Seriously, I remember many mornings in the 30s as I was going to work. It did usually warm up more than you're describing, but it DOES get cold in the valley. Too bad it gets warm more of the time.
Still no snow here in greater Boston. Heavy rain, temperature hovering at 32.9 so no ice.

It's a toasty 21 degrees F here right now. Woo, a heat wave! Better than yesterday's 13 degrees. I'm ready for a night where the low is above 10.
I haven't been running outdoors in fear of the somewhat slick trails (time to get those cleats for my shoes -- won't help in the ice, but it will in the packed snow). My poor dog is going to be fat by the time the snow finally melts off the roads. ;)
Last night I dreamed of riding my bike by myself on a perfect spring day. When I close my eyes, I go back there. It was awesome. I wish I could have that dream every night.

I think Mother Nature is just VERY confused this winter. Here I am riding yesterday (yes, January 14) on the trails on our 11 acres. Temp was 68-70. Normal temp for this date in NC is around 49, if that:

Don't hate me -- our high is only supposed to be 36 this coming Saturday! We haven't seen a snowflake this winter, and I'm actually hoping for just one snow before springtime. But yesterday was magical. Daffodils are blooming!!!

Ice Bound
They sent us home from work this afternoon in anticipation of ice. The rain has started coming and we never got above 32 at my house. I think tomorrow will be another day of being home, maybe Wednesday too! I should bake more cookies. :D
