And now a high of 26 next Monday. That’s gonna suck.

Ha, I am actually plant sitting for @KidSilverhair this winter and nearly messaged him today to see if he wanted them back.

After you told him you watered them by peeing on them I’m guessing he said no.

We never need that.

I don't know, I'm starting to see some mosquitos and other pests show up. Maybe a few days of freezing will wipe out a bunch of them.

Time for another Caribbean vacation, glad we are leaving on Saturday. Taking the daughter and grandkids on a week cruise out of Orlando for their spring break. Going to be in the 80s down there.

25 does that. 9 is unnecessary

I'll be in Minneapolis for a volleyball tournament this weekend, and I'm reminded why I never considered moving there. Highs 10-15 degrees lower than Des Moines. Why do people put up with that?

One could say the same thing comparing Des Moines to Kansas City - similar temp & precip differences between geographic latitudes

But.... Minneapolis can't claim superior to anyone else, unless you go outside of the US and be like "well at least we're not Winnipeg"
