Good day to you all, Nice Saturday morning here for me, I guess. If you know me and have read my post in the past you know that I rarely ever get any decent sleep waking up so much during the night and sometimes just not being able to sleep at all. Not sure what I did different last night but I was able to sleep 6 hours straight without waking up. I did wake after about 6 hours, went to the bathroom and was able to fall right back to sleep for about another hour. I’m kind of scared now LOL. They are saying we are going to get our first snow of the season tomorrow. It isn’t supposed to be much at all, maybe a light dusting on the cars and grass but still the first one. That is about normal for us currently so not a big deal. Even in years past we have had the first one in October. It has been a pretty warm fall for us so nothing to complain about. I am sure we will get plenty of snow and cold in the coming months, so I am not going to complain at all right now. I’ll wait till we get hit with a foot of snow or a week where it is below freezing before I complain. I know people already complaining about the cold coming on. Are you a winter person at all? Do you enjoy the cold or at least are okay with it? I have never minded it too much but then again, I was born and raised in the Chicagoland area, so it comes around every year. I really like that we have the change in seasons. Just as I get sick off the cold the warm weather comes around and when I get sick of the hot weather, I know that the cold is coming back soon. Hope you all have a good day.

So thankful you got some sleep! I was watching live web cams last night, and it was snowing in a few places (Fort Madison, Iowa and Elkhart, Indiana were two places I noticed on the “Virtual Railfan” network of live cams). I’m getting together a bunch of snow birds to escape this and go to Florida! Who’s with me??? Have a great day!

It gets old when we have a week or so that everyday is below 0F (-17C) then I start to get tired of it.
