The adventures of a retired couple as they travel the USA--
or just build live in a new log home, the Aerie, in the north-central PA.

Yeah. Me too.

No birding today.
The weather has deteriorated and the forecast is more dismal. If I were to go out, I might have an icy and difficult time getting back. After a glaze of ice early this afternoon, we're supposed to be switched over to snow. Perhaps as much as 3 to 5 inches of the stuff will fall late this afternoon and through the night. Then flurries and snow showers dominate this weeks forecast. TV news out of Elmira says it's in the high 20s there. Weather.com says it's 24 degrees down on Route 6. Our thermometer says it never got below 32 overnight and it was 33 degrees when we got up. (With the winds slowly coming over the mountain from the southeast, that's easy to believe.) Cold air does, indeed, sink.
(Actually, I learned that Weather.com and Accuweather use isotherms based on a few stations and interpolate the temperatures in between. Not always an accurate method in ridge and valley country. Especially when those ridges and valleys run east-west so the hills have a sunlit side and a shady side.)

Today will, therefore, be relegated to reading, blogging, napping, hoping for the demise of the Cowboys at the hands of the Vikings, rooting for the Jets vs the Chargers and other indoor pursuits.

Joated you got your wish, the Vikings gave it to my Cowboys.

Not only that, but despite thinking they probably wouldn't get it done, my Jets grounded the Chargers, too!
