It sure wasn't what you explained...my gosh. It is cold here now. Actual temperature this morning is 1 with a windchill around -6. Had a nice and peaceful first day of the year. starts back to school today so up bright and early. Thank you for asking about our first day of the year. Hoping you stayed in, stayed safe, and that some warming/melting comes your way. Also hoping your son came over and moved some of that snow for you.
