I can tell you ain't a Yankee! Got a whole lot of snow to get through before planting season. I don't think you could drive a railroad spike in the ground up here.
we have alternated between low 60 highs and 50 lows, to low 20's and teens and highs of 45. typical Georgia weather, and i would not trade ya one bit!! you can keep your road salt, snow plowing, and 8 months of miserable cold. I'll keep my sub-tropical oppressively humid heat
 
I did a mind-concentration experiment.

By concentrating and staring at an ice cube, I melted it.

Took longer than I thought.

I had a very young coon adopt me during bow hunting season. One of my favorite things to do to mess with his little mind was to put an ice cube in his water bowl. He'd pick it up, wash it, drop it 'cause it was too cold to hold on to, repeat. After awhile, the cube would melt. He'd spend an additional half hour or so searching for the cube he just knew was in his bowl somewhere.
 
my latest project...somebody save me!

At least everything is starting out in primo shape. What kind of project have you gotten yourself into brother Big?

Some local rioting (unlawful assemblies) last night, as well as the Oregon capitol at Salem, but otherwise a calm day in River City.

Tigard police shot a man, but no other information beyond inferring he was white, simply because nothing got burned down as a result.

The duplex refurbish is done, the new renter is moved in, I got a long overdue haircut, and have moved back to working on a cannabis thermodynamics 101 article, which continues to evolve and change.

Grandmother raised a male named Booger and was given a female named Henrietta by a neighbor who couldn't cope. By the time they reached adulthood, she donated them both to the Oklahoma City zoo. Both highly personable, intensely curious, and loved to play wrestle, but had needle teeth and were nocturnal, prowling the house at night and climbing curtains, et al. As you note, all good things go into their water dish, but we never tried an ice cube.

Yeah. I can understand that. Makes no sense to try to take a bath before spring in a place where the only thing between your place and the North Pole is a barbed wire fence... and that's blowed down.🐧🐧
