about the Weather Channel thing. Buddy lives to watch the Weather Channel. He will call me to ask me to watch for updates just to compare them to the radar pictures they have at work

I read this to Kenny and he says that he is not "that bad". I think it is only because he hasn't thought of it.
Gretchen--You wanna hear something funny. My BIL used to live on Johnnie Dodds in Mt Pleasant--think he moved this year to North Charleston-but I looked at the return address and was really confused.
Wow, it really is a small world. And I thought it was amazing that I lived 2.5 hours from Wendie's brother in Wilmington, NC. This has that beat for sure.
Um, this is not meant to be shared with the guys, right?
I knew there was a reason we are friends. We think so much alike.
You make sure you stay safe and warm. Those pictures really are amazing and like the other southern girls, I can't really wrap my mind around the reality of it. Not to rub it in, but I'm sitting in shorts at my computer looking at them with the A/C running. It was 80 degrees today. It is supposed to drop to 60 on Sunday and will be only 56 on Monday before it gets back to the mid 60s Wednesday.
Feel free to brag about your lovely weather in August when it is 1 million degrees with 200 percent humidity here.
My favorite part of the pictures, BTW, is the precious look of excitement on your beautiful daughter's face.
I LOVE THE PICS!! Wow, that is really beautiful. Course, I don't have to live with it

I have pics from our "White Christmas" that Kathy mentioned. I'll post a few this evening so you can see what we think of as a major snowfall!
I'm sure your idea of a major snowfall is kind of what mine is. We had a "major snowfall" in the winter of 1999 - 3 to 4 inches!!! Everything closed - schools, bridges, some roads, most businesses, grocery stores. I'm sure you know just what I mean.
I had to go to the store this AM...it started raining around 9:30 and by the time we came home, cars were skidding backwards on the hill I live on...YUCK!
Be careful out there girl. That sounds way to scary to me.
Your welcome. It was purely selfish on my part,
I wanted mail that wasn't a bill 
.
I'm glad we all could have fun with this.

Seriously though, thanks for coming up with the idea and organizing it. I have enjoyed this so very much.
I'm glad everyone got their packages and that you are all pleased and no one was offended and that my husband was WRONG, WRONG, WRONG. (not that I would point that out to him being the wonderful, loving wife I am)

I hope with the hot weather the chocolate didn't melt and ruin the pecans. I LOVE those things and could eat an entire bag in one sitting.
Now for the funny part of the packages. I was trying for a SC Christmas kind of theme. You know - the pecans grown in SC, Carolina BBQ. Well, my favorite BBQ sauce is my Dad's, but he won't give us the recipe. He said it will be our inheritance.

He offered to make sauce that I could send each of you, but I couldn't figure out how to get it there without it leaking everywhere. So I searched and found what looked like the closest to Dad's sauce starter. If anyone needs any ideas, give me a yell.
Lauren - I still didn't make those chops. I went for a haircut after work and they had an apprentice who did the blow dry after the cut. He took forever and it was all I could do not to jump out of the chair and run for the door. I was in there for over an hour. That left no time to cook dinner, so tonight ended up being take out and hopefully the chops will be tomorrow.
Good night everyone!
