She was a cop's wife and she had her nights to herself so she and mom had a lot of time to bond. Great lady....<br />Happy Thanksgiving to you and your lovely mate.zippiknits...sometimeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17385498014336581117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7115059.post-66475068869536531692016-11-19T15:38:45.279-08:002016-11-19T15:38:45.279-08:00I can understand that.

There's even great take out here. I give all the credit to Italian housewives who first opened up little tratorias like they have in Italy.zippiknits...sometimeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17385498014336581117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7115059.post-74668850020585864102016-11-19T15:33:28.459-08:002016-11-19T15:33:28.459-08:00Santa Barbara is gorgeous, anytime of the year.

We potluck the whole dinner and it's great!<br />I hear you about Floridians being cold in 70° weather; a SoCalian can so understand it.<br />My cousins in Colorado laughed at us in Jackets in their 65° summer nights. We played football under the lights at the local park.<br />I know what you mean about the intense sun here. It's like Australia.zippiknits...sometimeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17385498014336581117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7115059.post-31398836965342371202016-11-19T15:26:04.154-08:002016-11-19T15:26:04.154-08:00If that storm has hit I really hope they give you ...If that storm has hit I really hope they give you a time out from driving that bus if the storm lingers. <br />And yes, Arizonans don't like to be hot but Montanans don't like to be cold, so it must have messed with your mom's friend's internal heater gauges.

He was raised in Montana, you'd think he'd be a little tougher. LOL That said, we're bracing. The storm system that hit Minnesota yesterday is blowing in here today.
