Same goes for making sweet tea.

You heat it up, you cool it, you sweeten it, then add lemon.

There's nothing like it though.


I used to love fall and winter. However, middle age has made me really, really enjoy the summers! We bought one of those 20' above ground pools for the kids one summer for their birthdays, and I think I use it more than them! I love it. I also eat my weight in watermelon every year as well. Love it!

It has to be this tall, you know, because of the high-dive.

Move to Northern Ohio or stop whining.

Oh, come on! Whining is much more fun than living in Northern Ohio! On the other hand, parts of Southern Ohio along the river are just gorgeous.

And you are right about the plan. I would like a house in Colorado Springs for about 6 months a year and I will Winter in Texas.

Now where did I put that extra money?
I think the extra money is in your signature . Sounds like a great plan though.
