So, what do I care?

Incredible. Here it is Oct. 20 and we haven't had our first frost yet in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota. It's not all that unusual to have a frost in September. And it's almost certain by the first week in October. We had a colder than normal September. But October suddenly became summer, of sorts. We set all-time records for high temperatures. And some days we were more than 20 degrees above normal. If we're experiencing global warming, Minnesota is one of the beneficiaries. But I know better. The cold is coming. So is the snow. But I'm gonna be spending most of the winter in Italy. In Sardinia. In the Mediterranean Sea. So, what do I care? --Jim Broede
