Not drought-classification worthy, but the lawns burn up and turn into 2" high hayfirlds every summer if we don't get enough snow.
Their version is much more accurate!

It's Friday ........ THE 13th!!!!!!! .... You know what that means, right? Yessirree, Bob.... Tomorrow is Saturday!
About 2-3 inches of snow overnight which only took about 30 minutes to shovel the driveway and sidewalk this morning. Coffee and oatmeal after that for brekkie, followed by a shower'n'shave. The latter of which turned out to be the typical Astra "meh" result. The vacation countdown is now officially on, as I have been told to start getting things together BEFORE the day prior to departure.

On to a new blade! Well, new as in "not used," not new as in "I've never used this brand before." Shave was pretty nice, which makes up for the -18C/-0.4F wind chill out this morning. But that's okay, it'll make Cozumel seem so much warmer!

Love your attitude, Sam.

I cannot fault your logic, Bruce.

And early shave this morning and also an early start to laundry (on the correct day, @GearNoir !) as we are off to a show in the afternoon to see Simply Queen, a Queen tribute band. This was originally scheduled for late November last year, but a storm closed down the border at their entry point of Detroit and this is the make-up date. Should be fun.

Have a blast at the concert Sam! Though I am surprised. I thought we built a wall at the border to keep folks like you out? I will have to write my Congressman on that.
If we let you in, then everybody will want in…

MY mistake - I see see that I misread your statement - looks like our band is visiting you.
Band getting questioned by Customs at the border.

Yeah, these misreadings happen quite a bit before morning coffee#12. 
Sam, you old freak you. You and the missus gonna rip it up at the concert, huh?

Not sure about rupping it up at the concert, but I did manage to eat an 8" chicken pot pie and baked potato for supper at a pub, while glugging 16oz of Belgian pale ale.

The concert yesterday was pretty good and we enjoyed it. This morning's shave was not quite at that level and was my simply my target of meh. Lots of mini-running-around to do today but nothing major on the to-do list.

Dang, Sam, that's a lot of food. So you behaved at the concert and ripped it up at the pub, huh?
