Mid Winter Golf etc.

Winter blew in this weekend with blustery northerlies. Temps dropped to the 60s for daytime highs. Saturday Bren and I watched AJ play a golf tournament at Myakka Pines Golf club in Englewood. After months of warmer climes the weekend chill was a bit of a suprise. For the most part our sweaters and windbreakers kept the chill off. Not realizing it would be so cold most of the golfers wore shorts and were probably chilled to the bone by the time the sun went down. After warming up, Bren and I went to St Arman's circle to 15 South to see The Big Z Band. They play there about once a month and we enjoy heading out on the town about that often. We love to dance to their second set when they perform a Smooze Brothers (Blues Brothers) set with many of our old favs from the Fabulous Icons days, such as Mustang Sally! Today, Sunday was mostly spent cooling out around the homefront. Pretty much acing the NY Times Xword puzzle then watching the Pats destroy the Colts in the snow. Having been to a game in Foxboro on a snowy day I really was glad to be home on the couch watching today.

Wowowowow

This is a truly red letter day for the Twinem4 blog. When I checked in I noticed 2 comments posted. I think that this is a first. Thanks mucho. I will consider the sage advice and for a while focus on my own part of the world. Of course that makes things a little difficult as today not much happened. One of the highlights was to learn that on the web based game: Blogshares.com, our blog was ranked number 9 out of the top 100, in value for incoming links to the blog realclearpolitics.com. I have no idea what this means. If anyone else does, let me know. Even so, it seems kind of cool. On the home front, another day at 78 degrees. (just about perfect outside) Got out a little at work today to install a couple of signs and it was glorious. As much as I like to read about winter in Maine on friendly blogs, I do feel compelled to write about my drive home in the car at about 5:30. The sun today was over my left shoulder, low on the horizon. My side window was down, where in short sleeves, I could rest my arm on the door. I listened to some public radio music, then some oldies. Watching the sky change to beautiful shades of orange and red, it was very very nice for the wind down on the way home.
