Don’t know where you’ve been recently but if you were anywhere in the southwestern states, it was dang cold! I’m talking ice on the windshield, frozen birdbaths, iced up water fountains, longjohns, mitts, toques, down jackets and hot water bottles. There’s definitely something wrong when the temperatures in Alberta and Arizona are the same. :-)

Luckily the weather began to ease somewhat for the first day of the annual Escapees Happy Hour in Quartzsite. Many thanks to Susie & Denny Orr for organizing this wonderful get-together.

Sorry we didn’t catch other Ch 44 folks who showed up on Thursday. Glad to hear that Terry S made it safely south through the snow. He was busy checking out rocks and gems on Wednesday so we didn’t get to see him. Also saw Dottie B but didn’t get a pic.

What are the rest of you folks doing? Drop a line and let us know how your winter is going?
