        Thanks Holly!  Here's my plan for the week.  I'll be spending some time with my kids and grandkids--including my two new ones--down in Florida for a few days, so we'll see how this goes...

          Do we get a free pass if we get the forcasted blizzard today in Ohio?

           

          Got 37 miles in. The huge snow we got set me back a few miles.
