Yes, I am filling in again, tightly gripping the yoke in the first officer's seat.
Some local news - The rain season is in full force, with a "pineapple express" forecast for tonight. Can't say I've been through one of those before. Now that the gutters are all re-installed and the rain barrels are hooked up, I'm pretty sure they will be overflowing until March. I'd get some pictures, but it's dark and rainy outside, for the love of Pete! All this rain eventually means snow in the cascades, once it gets cold enough up there. It's already piling up in Whistler/Blackcomb, and it's time to get some mileage out of our new-used snowboarding gear this season. Thank you craigslist!
It's tough to predict what's in store for this weekend, at this point. Al seems to be developing a cold, just after we both recovered from that nasty 3-week super-duper-extender-bender cold that it seems everybody has gotten this season. The good (and bad) news is that the Michigan-Minnesota battle for the Little Brown Jug is on ESPN, so if plans to meet up and watch with others at the bar falls through, at least we can catch the game from the command of my own remote control.
TGIF, 'round the corner!
