Loved them all! Some on the list work for Ohio as well. We don't get as much snow as you and, of course, we don't have your beloved Steelers.:)

ReplyDeleteHey, we are up North farther, and my granddaughter had to ORDER her boyfriend NOT to rent a CAMOUFLAGE tux, for her Junior Prom!!!!!!! -gigggles-
"11. You know all 4 seasons: almost fall, winter, still winter and road construction. "
Oh yeah!!!!! And to top that, around here, Spring means road construction!!!! I mean warm Spring. Not early Spring. No, they "have to" wait till nicer weather!!!! when the visitor traffic has started! Yish!!!!
This is so funny! I have to admit that my pastor has brought up the Pirates and Steelers in his sermon more than once. During playoffs he always puts the players in our prayers and rushes through so we can get home for kickoff :)
