Well Saturday started out once again on the chilly side with temps in the upper 40's, still no frost as of this winter and the garden is doing just fine thus far. It did warm up to the upper 60's and maybe even hit a low 70 by late afternoon when we compare this with what's happening in the mountains; its a heat wave. I started the day with my usual well before 6 rollout to my routines that begin with some quiet times after posting this ramble to honor my lord, Jesus, to give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name for comfort and healing, all seem to be holding with this post. I piddled around on this computer until mid morning when it started to warm up a little before heading out to hand water the gardens.
We had a semi mountain breakfast with eggs, leftover kielbasa and toast before I headed out to check on the gardens, bury some table scraps in the garden and to hand water it for the day. The air was still chilly with a breeze coming out of the north despite the bright sunshine. I checked the webcam's for our mountain area and there was a white covering of snow every where and the temps were in the teens; too cold for me anymore. Nancy had the heat on here for a couple of hours to take the chill off the house, but it did eventually warm up to shorts and t-shirt weather.
I didn't do much except a few honey do's and then I read for a couple hours and then tuned into some college football bowl games and then finally into the NFL by late afternoon. Nancy was off to the Ross residence to help with securing and feeding Rocky their huge dog who is a hoot, we decided it was better to go to their house instead of housing him here for the day as he is like a bull in a china closet, plus my garden has no fence around it in the back yard and he would be in it for certain.
The Ross Family traveled down to Palm Beach/Ft.Lauderdale area for a basketball game at a huge complex which was not too far from the Trump place. They did go by and saw where our POTUS now lives and makes his residence call Mar a Lago and the place had tons of police vehicles around it. By the way this team they played whupped Keswick by a good margin. Ava did play and played without pain which was good too hear. Not sure why the coach would schedule games 4 hours away when there is plenty of competition in the local area, oh well.
I grilled chicken wings we were supposed to have new years eve but we didn't and I had frozen them until today. They were excellent and we have enough for another meal along with a Caesar salad from the last of my romaine lettuces I harvested a day ago. After the cleanup I settled into the end of the NFL game which wasn't that great and then I hit the shower and then some ALONE on the bedroom TV until lights out at 10'ish. Today is corporate worship at S.R.B.C. where we will work the doors greeting folks and then lunch out at the Botbyl's until the Bucs game comes on at 1 PM in Tampa. Son, Bobby and grandson Gabe will attend along with his father in law Bruce. Lets hope all segments of the team show up to play against the lowly Saints, LATER
