Glad to hear you're OK :smile: ! I hope the storms tonight miss your area.

I know it's tough to see your kid scared when there's really nothing you can do about it...take good care.

It was 103 here just a couple of days ago... Then cold weather hit and it dropped to the low 60's in Tucson and it SNOWED a foot on the local mountains. So much for the camping trip.
The roads are closed on Mt. Graham and chains required where they are plowed. It really put out a fire that was burning in the hot dry mountains...

It's cold here also, I'm wearing a heavy sweater. This may be the first Memorial Day where I will have a jacket on to grill outside. :bugeye:
