You know, I've always liked winter better than summer. Just a goofy guy.

I am so glad. I find January and February, particularly February, long months. February making no sense at all, considering it is the shortest month. All the seasons seem to go by quicker than they used to.

I will take every minute of daylight I can get! Catherine, I too find January and February so very long. Too many days with cloudy gray skies. However, even those dreary months are starting to fly by.

The cover for the Porsche just came in. Rick plans to get the car cleaned up and cover it this weekend. Since spring is almost here, maybe he should not bother.

79° here yesterday, but the forecast is for some rain. Just as long as the weather is good on January 2 (Rose Bowl).
