Well Sunday found us once again with cold temps down close to freezing but the breeze kept the frost away and again overnight it was supposed to drop. I checked my plants after lunch and they looked good while I hand watered. I was at SPC at 6 o'clock to help with the load in from the big truck and then set up for the 9:30 service for BridgePoint Church along several volunteers. Needless to say the bike ride at that time of the day had my eyes watering in the cold breeze. We stayed until the end of the second service around 12:30 before leaving and meeting up for lunch with Dan and Carol.
The cold moderated a little in the afternoon with bright sunshine but still required a lite jacket or sweater when out doors as I hand watered during the half time of the Jag vs Steeler game where it was abundantly cold there, yikes. We now have a Florida team in the playoff picture as they will travel to the frozen north to play the Patriots to see who goes to the big game. Nancy was off to do some shopping then stopped by GG's house which has now been sold; but Betsy and Gus were painting the inside for the new owners. We had lunch at Millers Ale House which was very tasty and the place must have 50 large TV's through out so we got to watch the Jags be up by a couple scores before getting home. That was quite the surprise to me as the Steelers came back several times through out the game but only to lose before a home town crowd.
The second game was just as exciting as well with the Saints losing on the last play after being down the whole game but came back to what was expected to be a win when the Vikings pulled it out on a hail Mary pass with time expiring, yeow what a finish. The big game will be played in their stadium in a couple weeks which is in doors but the outside showed snow and cold temps. I wouldn't want to live there on in Pittsburg. So it looks as if the match up will be in the cold country of the Eagles vs Viking and the Jags vs Patriots. I would like to see the Jags vs the Vikings for the bragging rights in the big game on Super Bowl Sunday.
Since we had a big late lunch of fish and chips with slaw for me and a chicken type salad for Nancy we just munched on some pop corn for supper around 7'ish. I headed in after the games to the TV in the bed room so Nancy could have the big screen in the living room. It wasn't long after 10'ish and some Alaska shows I was ready for some horizontal lab since I was up at 5:30. The heat was coming on occasionally but this morning it was 45 according to the local weather station, LATER
