Winter Is On It's Way

Spent the morning doing laundry at Uncle Ken's. Uncle Ken and Dolores were making pea and ham soup. The scent of baking ham and frying bacon made the house smell wonderful! Dad watched The Weather Channel for most of the morning. Dad's been a sailor for at least 30 years, and like most sailors, he's always concerned about the weather. That's usually what's on when he's home. He was starting to take down their Christmas lights when I left.

It was chilly today, still not quite right for this time of year but closer than the past few days, and very still. I had no problem getting to work, which was steady but not overly busy. This may change tomorrow, when non-Weather Channel-addicts catch the snow/rain forecast for Sunday and Monday.
