Thursday, 7:55 am: During the past few days our weather has been unseasonably warm. For us that means it has been above freezing by a few degrees. Eventually last night the temperatures dropped to below zero and back to normal. I got out my long johns again.

While in Presque Isle on Tuesday we tried to get our car washed, but everyone else with wheels had the same idea and the line of cars snaked around the carwash and out to the street. I had to admit it was a nice sunny day, but we gave up on getting our car’s coating of mud and road grime washed off. Our car remains unclean.

My brain is off-kilter this morning and seemly is not connected to my typing fingers. Interesting weather blogging is elusive today. I need more coffee, so I can blunder haphazardly outside to chip ice and carry in firewood. That should clear away the cobwebs and any remaining functional brain cells.
