Brrr! Monticello

Brrrr! Monticello! Mother Nature got her directions wrong and sent Monticello, Minnesota weather to us.

Well, kinda anyway, according to the “Monticello Times,” the local newspaper there, the high temperature for today is -17. Ouch!

Yes, we are suffering through a few days of cold weather and yes, there are a few snow flakes here and there, but let’s face it, we are living in paradise compared to most of the other Monticellos.

As someone always says, if you don’t like the weather just wait a day or two.

Here’s some food for thought, in 1989, the high for this time of year was 73 degrees, look it up. How soon we forget.

So, bundle up, remember to feed the birds and make some soup. In six months time, we will be talking and writing about the heat wave.
