Didn't want to 'hijack' another thread below where Ian and DonM started talking about the weather ... here in "frigid" New England we have been experiencing the mildest winter I can remember ... while we have had a couple of snow occurrences and some cold days. we have had a lot of days of mid 40's F and even some days in the 50's ... so much so that a number of golf courses have either re-opened or remained open through January and February ... not that
I have benefited from that due to having had 'hammer toe' surgery last week
... I am basically out of action until mid March
... but all should be better after that ...
Of course I am sure it will be a while before we see temps in the 70's again ...
