Title: Baby it's cold outside - Winter Wonderland

 ;D In an ironic twist Her Royal Highness Nancy Pelosi had to cancel her trip to Copenhagen along with her entourage to the global warming conference because of a blizzard on the east coast.  ;D

:) President Obama rushes home to escape blizzard as Washington airports close down flights.  :)

So what is so unusual? It's winter ... and in the winter it gets cold. It snows ... water freezes.

Deep freeze across nation to get colder

Temps Plunge to Record as Cold Snap Freezes North, East States...
Vermont sets 'all-time record for one snowstorm'...
Iowa temps 'a solid 30 degrees below normal'...
Peru's mountain people 'face extinction because of cold conditions'...
Beijing -- coldest in 40 years...
World copes with Arctic weather...

 :-* Love it.  :)

By the way how are things down your way?

I'm all snuggled up here with a big mug of hot chocolate and venturing out only to shovel my sidewalk and listening to my collection of old time radio programs.

Hear that the freezing weather is as far south as Key West and Florida is scurrying to harvest their orange crop before they freeze.

This "global warming" freeze is slated to go on for another week so you better stock up on veggies befor the prices go sky high.

It's been very, VERY cold here... got a light dusting of snow the other day,
but right now it's just too darned cold to snow any more - mostly clear
skies here.

I've had to turn up the thermostat just to keep up with the outside temperatures,
and my home has already had some weather updates ! (new windows, doors, ect)

I think I am gonna have to crawl up in the attic this fall and put some insulation
in over the downstairs ceilings.... BRRRRRRRRRRR
