Turning colder

A NASA photo at night of all the lights of the USA.  Note it is the lights that are illuminating the coasts and Great Lakes--amazing!)

 

 

We've had a cold front come through--we didn't get any of the snow forecasted--just the c-o-l-d north wind.  It stayed north--I'd like some moisture, but really don't want to deal snow.  But I'll take whatever we get (like I have a choice!) HA

 

Kyle called for about 5 minutes last Sunday, and we got a letter from him this week.  (Is one paragraph *really* a letter?) HA  But he is doing good, and we get to see photos posted online of various stages of training posted by the Base. 

Jared and Chandra are doing fine.....haven't heard much from them.  (No news is good news!)

Talked to my mom the other day, guess they are planning on heading to Texas next week.  I imagine dad is chomping to go since it's gotten cold!  (Can't blame him!)

 

Patrick and I got a good start on the cow shed/chicken coop addition.  Work come to a stop when we needed more wood.   So more wood and a bit better weather is needed to get more work done.  (And a day off!) 

 

I have been working alot, so haven't been getting much done around here other than the 'normal' stuff.  I am looking forward to getting some time off to get some things done around here that need done or I've been putting off.   :-)
