They're expecting a freeze as far south as Vegas tonight. It's 34 here right now, not counting the wind chill, and predicted to get as low as the 20's. I wanted cooler weather but this is just a little bit too much. Oh well, next week it'll be back to normal.

Here's a reality check - or something I just took for granted people were familiar with.. How many of you know what HEAT TAPE is ??
If you don't live in a freezing climate you probably wouldn't know.. When I went to work this morning and found out a couple other people had frozen pipes,, I told them they should check their HEAT TAPE to make sure it's working.. They had no idea what HEAT TAPE was,, becuase where they lived previously it wasn't needed.. So,, I think I'm going to move south,, and not stop till I run into a bunch of people who don't know about or need HEAT TAPE.. ------------------

By the way,, Heat Tape is like an extension chord only it actually gets warm when you plug it in.. You wrap it around the water pipes under your home or mobile home that are exposed to the cold,, so they won't freeze..------------------

Quit your crying. Just kidden man, that is cold for you. We went to vegas for a nascar race a few march's ago. Left vegas tuesday, beutiful 70 degrees to end up stranded in chicago overnight cause of blizzard and them having troubles keeping ice off the wings.
Its been really unseasonably warm around here so far this winter, but friday we finally got some snow and the temps are getting pretty dang cold with windchills below zero tonight. Forecast of highs in the 20's this week.------------------
