I will have to send him a shout out. He is trying to encourage me to move there, but I love the NW so back and forth on it. And you get snow in middle of Oct, lol.

It's been in the 90s all week.

We finally got a cold front and the high will only be 75 degrees!
The heat will be back on Sunday

You can always put on more clothes when it gets cold. "There is no bad weather, only bad clothing."

the last three years have been a godsend. Watch tv, bp goes up. I go out to shovel my ass off, bp goes down.

Not kidding. I would get so pissed at our asinine leader that I would grab the shovel to cool off.

But it was gone in a few hours even though it never got over +45F all day. It's +45F now and maybe will get a little warmer as the days go by but not expecting much this time of year.

The garden is harvested and summer toys put up so it can snow all it wants, helps put out the remaining wildfires.

Only now it's mostly heavy sleet and rain and other cold wet shit. And wind.
