I did mention that I looked at the forecast for your area, and it had snow possible almost every day and night this week :)<br /><br />JudySeine Judeet (Judith)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07407353544376132484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-43916115386390121592010-12-01T07:32:53.707+01:002010-12-01T07:32:53.707+01:00Hi Cheryl, sounds like it would have been a good t...Hi Cheryl, sounds like it would have been a good time for a trip to Chicago. Judy has said they've been having snow in St. Louis, though, if I remember right.<br /><br />Emm, Callie gets her paws washed off in warm water in the downstairs shower nearly every morning after her walk. She did have ice between her paw pads yesterday morning, I noticed.<br /><br />Mary, We are at the top of a steep hill, which is actually a plateau that vineyards are planted on. It's a steep climb up our road, and I think we are as much as 300 feet above the level of the river. Not sure about that though. When the road is icy or snowy it's dangerous.<br /><br />Hi Caroline, having no hot water is bad enough, but no water at all in the kitchen is even worse. Hope the work got finished. Good luck with the snow too.Ken Broadhursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04430899802705818716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-47094448670088368202010-12-01T04:05:09.410+01:002010-12-01T04:05:09.410+01:00It is approximately the same temp in Chicago as it...It is approximately the same temp in Chicago as it is here in San Jose -- mid-50's. The temps in Chicago are going down. Am hoping that ours are going in the opposite direction.

She'll let you know soon enough if it's bothering her, and it's easy to clean out.

Even though we (Eugene) had low 20's last week we're now back up to a high of 50 yesterday and today will be in the low 40's. <br /><br />I am glad you caught yourself, Walt, on the ice. Nasty walking on slippery surfaces. <br /><br />How high on the hill are you?Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04911284607089608538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-19133123101125599452010-11-30T16:53:37.423+01:002010-11-30T16:53:37.423+01:00Sounds like a good day to stay inside and bake som...Sounds like a good day to stay inside and bake some bread and make homemade soup.

We had our first dusting of snow last night but still seem to be one of the few places in Englang which has escaped any problems. There is more forecast though. I just hope the man who is coming in to finish our new kitchen will come today, at the moment we have no water in the kitchen which is a challenge!Caroline Rnoreply@blogger.com
