OK, I know I live in Florida - southwest Florida - and it's supposed to be hot. But, it's the middle of October!

This past week Fort Myers broke a record reaching 95 degrees and Naples tied a previous record of 93 degrees. If nothing else, there's no need to run the swimming pool heater. Today we went for a swim around noon and the pool was bath tub temp - 86-87 degrees.

Now, I just read a Tweet that said the high temp for the Phillies game tomorrow is 37F! Really?

Several years back before we moved from New England, one of the last outdoor pictures I have is in February with me standing on a step ladder beating the ice damns off the roof! The only thing worse is being on a 20 ft. extension ladder doing the same thing or, standing on the roof shoveling off the snow.

Memories...
