I just got off the phone with Dad, who lives down near Brownsville, Texas.
DAD: Man, it is really cold down here!
ME: Define "cold".
DAD: 40 degrees! Maybe 39!
ME: Uh-huh. It's 21 degrees here.
Folks down south who say that it's cold get no sympathy from me. :-)
Of course, I'm in the rare position of being happy about the cold weather! The faster the ground freezes, the sooner we can get a new septic system without utterly destroying the lawn. (Well, other than the lawn where the new septic system will go. That will be utterly destroyed!)
