One more coat of high gloss white paint on the molding in the entrance foyer and the foyer is done. Then I have to figure out what kind of tile to put down.

Well, it's 4 degrees out there with a frozen snow covered ground between me and the barn
Fresh water and a light perch scraping for the birds. Caution going over that frozen tundra.
I have laundry, painting, & cleaning on today's schedule. When is it going to warm up?

Lol. Yeah Canada is even worse...took a fishing trip in the last week in August a few years back. One day the temps dropped and it began to sleet....couldn't believe it. Fish didnt care but whoa it was cold.

I wonder,, with really cold temperatures and the water almost cold enough to freeze,, do those fish smell??
My lake is solid still right now. Its 40 ft deep in spots and averages about 20 ft and is spring fed. People snowmobile on it. Some fish are almost hibernate states when it freezes to save energy (bass). Pike, Walleye are fun to catch in the winter as they still feed alot and pulling a huge fish in on a small rod is fun. When the ice is gone and the water temps raise a little, Crappie will have feeding frenzies and that is a great time to catch them as their fillets are firm and they are a very tasty fish. In summer they fillet out differently and aren't as good. The crappy's on our lake will run up to 12-15 inches which quit large. Most fish have a different smell in spring than in mid summer.

California is okay and your weather is warm. Kinda like that other west coast strip of land that fell into the Pacific a couple of hundred years ago.
