Steve,
Wow, all kinds of activity going on down south. I can only imagine what your neighbor was thinking when she saw all the emergency vehicles by her house. Glad it wasn't that. That is cool that your neighbors care enough to call the fire dept when they think your house is on fire. I would hope my neighbors would do the same thing.

Jim

Its been cold here too. Reports on snow on the ground in Ventura. And my late nights at work are harsh. I'm thinking about getting gloves because my hands get freezing. 40* at 10AM the other day.

Nothin' wrong with a little pad of warmth between you and that cold steel. Charlton would be proud.

Having 4 seasons is over rated. I love wearing shorts in January.
