No more cold weather. No more January weather in December. We’re set for
highs in the forties, lows in the twenties. We got through that deep
freeze. Some people here had a lot of trouble with things freezing up. Our
pipes never froze up completely. We had a few faucets that didn’t work in
the morning a couple times, but they each thawed out later in the day. No
damage. We did go through a lot of diesel fuel to keep warm. The furnaces
ran nonstop when the temperatures were single digit or lower. We used sixty
gallons of diesel over a period of three weeks for the furnaces and had to
drive across the street to the gas station to refuel.

Football is a stupid game. The Broncos won, and it’s still a stupid game.
Twelve to ten. What a win.

It warmed up today, all the way to freezing. The low tonight is only going
to be nine degrees, but that’s twenty degrees warmer than last night. It’s Judy’s birthday today, she gets to do anything she wants, and I have to
be nice to her for the WHOLE DAY!

Last night’s low, ten below. We were one of the few RVs in the park that
had any water at all. We had cold water in the bathroom sink and hot water
in the kitchen sink. Nothing in-between. As we warmed up to zero during
the day, all the water came back on. Another cold one tonight, then we’re supposed to warm all the way back up to
freezing.
