OK. Post 200. Let's see if I become an Enthusiast.
Nice try, Pifka. Nice try.
The sunset last night was to die for even if the tempretures dropped.
You can say that again Phoenix! I'm freezing ... went to bed with socks on, sweater, long johns, etc. Woke up to dread getting out of bed. Gawd, are we spoiled or what?

A guide on the Endeavour? I have friends who have done that, at various places around Australia and overseas. One has just recently been doing her guiding bit while it was in Whitby, UK. They find it quite addictive.
Misti - get over here! Summer's coming - you can stay warm, as well (bloody hot, more likely, but...)
Margo, just let me know when summer hits, okay? I don't do cold at all ... I'm freezing right now and it's in the 60's, but the low end!
I'm starting to save my pennies, so batton down the hatches, full steam ahead!
Ma! You're killin me!
Florida has great weather ~ I won't disagree. But this cool change is such a relief! It kinda sorta makes up for the lack of change in season.
Come on! Put the woolies on and be happy! For me? Please? Can we keep the windows open tonight? (I know.....I'm pushin my luck.....)
Love ya, mean it!
When my teeth chatter, I look like I'm smiling too, Misti
Hi Roger! You know Rae hates the heat, and I'm the opposite! One of the reason I left the northeast was because of the weather, and I DO NOT MISS IT!
I'm quite happy in the heat and humidity. I can always get cool but yah can't always get warm!
MrsC and I got up at ~4AM to watch for the Leonid meteor shower. As soon as I walked into the back room, which has large windows looking out across Lake Worth to the North, I saw one streak across the sky. We walked out onto the dock and watched for about a half hour until it got too cold for nightclothes and robes. It was a pretty decent display inspite of the full moon's presence. We probably were seeing 4-5 per minute at the peak time. For more news on meteors, See-

Gorgeous weather here again today with highs near 70
Getting a weather break of sorts. A monsoon trough wil be passing over Guam for the next few days, lots of rain. But, on the bright side the formation is not expected to form into a typhoon until it passes by. Hope it doesn't though, normally when a typhoon forms after it passes Guam it runs into the Phillipines, Taiwan, China or Japan and causes loss of life.
In 96 we had super typhoon Paka run through here just before Christmas, man did that put a damper on the holiday season. Power was out for about three months, luckily we had running water throughout many people didn't. Since normal Guam weather is sort of like sitting in a sauna, no air conditioning makes for flaring tempers. The thing that amazed most people including the CNN crew that came here to film the aftermath is that nobody was killed, or seriously injured. I think that disappointed them they didn't come back for the last typhoon this summer.
Pueo: You have a very interesting weather pattern, if not scary! Typhoons? Now that's something to worry about!
Wanna join me?
), and anything under 65 degrees is BRRR!
Never one to admit defeat, I kept going and became reasonably competent. The Endeavour was here in the Gig for three weeks. Quite a lovely sight. I gave the first tour and the last... that one to Mr. PFK who got to roam the entire ship at will with me by his side, providing various statistics, trivia and facts (all forgotten now).
:wink: Rae, I do have my woolies on, and I have my duvet on my bed, along with a blanket, AND my door slightly open ....... AND, I'm smiling, thru gritted teeth, arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!
