Grew up thinking how tough we were when it came to weather.

But the older I get I take more notice to all the moaning and whining about snow and cold.

So we were supposed to get whacked with a Nor 'Easter today.

Meh.

Nothing but hours and days of trepidation.

Finally, you accept the inevitable and accept it with a grin.

But when it's all over you realize that it wasn't as advertised. Not even close. Much ado about nothing.

Just some wet slop and not nearly as many inches as predicted.

Then it hit me:

This must be what every date I ever had felt like.

Excellent weather for fishing... unless you're on my boat, which seems to repel the fish. 🤦

It's okay. That will eventually change, and when it does I predict an epic day!! 🌫

That's cause you didn't smash a bottle of champagne on it..........did you!?

Do that............and da fish will jump in your boat.

Can't be a cheap bottle either!

A wet snow...

It's kinda bad.... but nothing like some of the last few years storms....

It is super windy (25-45 mph) and it is drifting and refreezing now ...

Schools closed today...

Just saw most schools are closed tomorrow.

Be safe!!!

I don't even drink champagne. Can I break a bottle of beer on it, instead? Wait!! Miller High Life! The champagne of beers!

Brilliant! I wouldn't want to waste a good beer.

/straight face

Absolutely!! If you ship the ladies a case of good beer I'd damn near guarantee fast delivery of your shipments.

Victor sends cupcakes and sometimes he gets his orders before he ever bids. True story, bro.

But wait, beer?

Is that the proper pairing for cupcakes?

I'd think a good German Riesling would be more in order.

...hmmmm.

It's funnier when you say it...

Hey, the B's have Brad Marchmont on the team, so all is ok.

Boston closed schools yest and today. Nobody on the roads, so the commute was teet.

🇨🇮

Felger and Mazz guy, eh?

down here about 12 miles south of Boston we were spared the worst. I left work yesterday (we closed) around 12:30 and conditions were brutal...heavy, wet, wind driven snow, almost white-out driving conditions, but maybe 8 or 9 inches accumulation by the end.

The bad part was this morning. After a flash freeze last night my plow guy (20+ years without incident) became incommunicado on his way here. Never heard from him again, never heard from his wife, kinda worried.

Got my mechanic up here a little while ago and he did what he could to plow the 2 driveways. I finished chopping and scraping the rest with the help of sunshine...but I'll probably work from home this afternoon. Giving my old back a rest.

to the op...date and nut bread, try it with cream cheese.
