Post Christmas...

So I woke up this morning and looked out the window to formulate a plan for the day. My last recollection of a weather forecast was for the warming trend to continue. Obviously the guy that made that forecast was full of @#$%^. There is 2" of fresh snow outside. I think it is just accumulating for Ukrainian Christmas in a couple of weeks, which is coincidentally when Peter will receive his gift from me unless he stops by and picks it up before then (hint).
