Brrrrrrr

Although the TV and computer said the Bath temperature was minus 2 this morning, here on our tropical isle it was 6 degrees, balmy, right? I do not know if the last three Januarys have been this cold, but I do know that it was really great to be where the sun shone, and the sand was warm. This year we are going South again, but not for a few weeks. Big mistake, one that will not be repeated. The good part of it is that we are able to burn up some of our wood piles. The bad part is everything else.
The Roman god Janus was two-faced, looking ahead and behind. Generally it was thought that he would turn from the past to the future. Janus would be lost in Maine. Looking ahead, all we can see is cold and colder. Geez, just look at the fools at the right. It ain't much warmer in Pennsylvania. Incidentally, Phil comes out to play on February 2 this year. By which time we will have the sand between our warm toes.
