Beautiful photo; captures the essence of winter on the water.

Rest well, Professor. You’ve earned a night off.

Not too many Jennifer, it might be selfish but I need to read HCR every morning, even if is 2 AM eastern time to start putting everything together and think. Coffee always helps but it's not enough. 😎

I always save for my morning coffee, but I don't read anything else before LFAA.

Lymphosite Function Associate Antigen, LFAA? That sounds serious Mike. I would try coffee no matter what. 😁

It used to be like that in Medford. Does it ever snow there now/. Good to hear from you. Our Professor has brought an amazing group of folks together. For that I an grateful. May we all take a night off and a deep breath.

It does occasionally, more now than it did when I grew up there, I believe. It seems as though now, every 2-4 years there is a major winter storm of some sort. Last year was a horrendous ice storm, so I'm hoping we dodge one this year.

Several years ago, we were in Medford for my nephew's 30th birthday tea party. I was wearing shorts and a Hawaiian shirt; temp was 60+. Got a text from my friend in Eugene that said "big snow event forecast, you guys better head home." We left, beautiful weather northbound until we crested Canyon Creek pass. 8"of snow. Fought that all the way to Eugene. Woke up to 17" of snow, here.

This group is quite a community, isn't it? I love it here.

Three inches just last night! The day before my son and I moved another ten wheelbarrow loads of oak into the woodshed from the dropped pile on the lawn's edge; finishing the job will have to wait for a little melt and then intra-pile thaw and, yeah, my 88-year-old shoulders to loosen up again.
