I've been on the road (Nashville) for three days. One of the first few posts, that I read was Sam,s "Snowstorm." Naturally, I'm interested because my kid sister lives in the same general area and is no doubt enjoying the same storm. So, to make Sam feel better, or maybe worse, I have to tell you about Nashville. Highs in the low 70's, clear to partly cloudy, breezy. We took WMM's mom and aunt to the Opryland hotel and walked through the multi-climate atriums. Flowers were blooming, the fake waterfalls and fountains were running, people were strolling around in short sleeves enjoying it all. We took these two 80's ladies out to eat, drove into Murfreesboro for some shopping and went to visit another aunt who doesn't get out much anymore. Exciting it wasn't, but it was really fun watching them laughing and joking and talking about 60 years ago as if it was yesterday. I think we'll do it again soon. We got home a couple of hours ago. It was just as warm and sunny as it was 150 miles to the west. But I three days behind on this forum, and I had 31 emails waiting. I zapped 20 of them,(Confounded Spam!) so that only left 11. I know what I'm going to do tomorrow, if the weather holds. Howard
