Brrrrrr!

We have been having record cold temps here in Denver the past few days. They recorded -15 at the airport yesterday (not nearly that cold at my house, luckily!). We have ice sheets on the inside of our windows when we wake up. This morning, the thermostat on my computer desk read 58. This is not a comfortable temp to sit and read emails! It now only reads 61. Brrrr! We do set our house thermostat down to 62 at night, so it is understandable. But amazing that it is so cold that we haven't yet reached a comfortable temp in the dining room! (New windows, you are for sure on our list!!!!!) It finally got above zero outside, we are now reading 2 here.

I forgot to mention in my last post, one of the coolest things that happened lately. We were going to lunch, and I completely drove the wrong direction. No reason, and I drove way out of our way. BUT - going that way allowed us to drive right under the path of a bald eagle. Yes, flying right through our neighborhood, on our street, low enough for us to see details on the bird. Definitely white head feathers and tail feathers. Elise noticed it out her window, and called it - a bald eagle. We watched as it flew over us, and yes, it was a bald eagle. I stopped dead in the middle of the street, and we watched it fly away.

Now I'm off to sit in front of the fireplace and try and warm up!
