The weather here has been unseasonably warm this Fall. I just got a new roof installed on my house and a Trex Deck.
I am ready for Winter.

Our weather has been really good too. It has been 60 in the mornings and 70-80 all day! Today was our first cold day, it was 55 in the morning and 65 with lots of wind. Brrrr (I know you northerners are probably laughing at me right now, but that is cold for here!)Originally Posted by Terry Newton

You are nuts! It is 40 this morning, and I am freezing. It should get up to the mid 60's today, still chilly for me. I like the 70's - 80's. We had a fire in the fire place last night and made chili for dinner. This morning I put my daughter in her biggest warmest coat and sent her to school.lol...

Terry -- A Trex deck. Oh how cool that is. ZERO maintenance for the life, minus a good scrubbing every now and then. We are looking at that for the front deck we are putting on next summer. It all depends on health and money.
Kathy -- You crack me up. My brother lives in Boyd, about 1/2 hour from you. He grew up in the cold but now has a hard time dealing with it. He came up this early spring to visit. We still had snow on the ground but it was like 50 or so. We went out for a bit and he "BUNDLED" up in hat, coat and gloves. All I could do was laugh as I pulled out my sweatshirt for the day. I'm guessing his blood got a little thin like yours.
