Congrats Archie_tect. I've heard it said the best justification for having kids is grandchildren. We've only seen ours once since he was born in October due to Covid, Mrs 12's health and the 500 mile round trip. I am sure we will get shots within a month and try for a trip between the winter storms.
I will take a page from your books in a bit and go for a stroll...biking in -14C is doable but not appealing.
Dave r, best wishes for your wife, tough times to be ill that way.
We are off to see the cancer doc today, which I've come to dread. Mrs 12's port is clogged on top of the regular worry, but hopefully they can clear it out without needing a surgical replacement. We will be there for 2-3 hours and thank God for ebooks. I get to go in to talk to the doc but not the other stuff and a book will be nice.
Cold and windy today, per usual for this time of year but also very sunny which is cheerful.
Old wheels I sympathize with the jolly fun mounting Marathon Plusses on 16 " wheels. I've trashed the beads and pinched the tubes on more than one.
Be careful, safe and warm.
