Change of Color
Fall has finally arrived in the deep south of the Coastal Bend of Texas…with the change of color… Now compared to Alaska and other parts of the nation it is kind of tame. Nonetheless, while everyone at the old Permafrost Ranch is experiencing very mild weather and freezing rain. We are still reaching the 80 degrees or better mark here. So, to all my friends and family in the Great Land. I’m sorry but that sheet of ice is liable to be with you for the rest of winter until spring. Thank goodness, I’m not driving on those roads anymore. My hair is white enough.

Just a Tease
Yesterday, Debbie and I took a drive down to Down Town Corpus Christi. The weather was so fine it had me smiling and laughing all the way. We had the windows down, the Chunky Monkey was hanging out the window the whole way. So you folks up there in the Great Land, this is just to tease you. I remember what it’s like in late October in Alaska. In fact I remember it being -30 on Halloween day. There is much about Alaska I do miss but the cold and snow isn’t on that list. Here we are singing out song, down by the sea. Don’t you wish you were here with us.

Snowscoop Headed South
I’m always saying in the chat room, when the old permafrost ranch sells, I’m going to tie this snow scoop onto the front of the pickup truck. Then we are going to start driving south. I’ll drive south until someone will ask me what the heck is that on your truck. Then and then only will I know that I’ve driven far enough south to stop.
