We're home and had a wonderful dinner

Now I am having some wine and cheese.

I have heard of snappy's Magnolia

Hope everyone has a good weekend on tap.

It is really, really cold here

Heard snow will be at 500 foot level tonight. That's insane, last time was 1988 it got this low around here. Better cover a few plants.

Thanks, we hope so too!
Snow level in our area is 500 feet and we are at ~~250...very...very...bad...
Not just bad because I don't personally like cold temps, but because we grow a lot of the nations food. I hope the farmers are taking precautions....

No snow on this side thankfully. Keep warm and stay out of trouble

We went to the Opera last night to see "Don Giovanni." It was excellent. I love the Opera!

Saw lots of people I hadn't seen in months or years, so intermission was fun.

May go to the movies tonight, haven't decided which one.

Grading exams today, making up some quizzes for the week, and hubby is also grading so it's been a fun morning

Portland is cool. Oregon in general is cool. Although I'm glad to be outa there! I left the freezing muck yesterday morning to the great sate of Texas. A wonderful 70 degrees in Houston yesterday and today. I'm off work now and sneaking a hello in the hotel lobby. I'm going to take a stroll and find somewhere that has cold beer and hot BBQ.

Ya'll have a good weekend.
