I'm sure this memory will bring us through the toughest of snow storms.

So to those fading tan lines we bid farewell. Even a I crave running to the beach again, with buckets and shovels and supporting sunscreen but again we Minnesotans must exchange them for snow saucers and wooly hats and mittens.

Take good care of you.

Shouting out a thank you to all that made this 2020 election a success for America! Unbelievable amount of voters making their voice heard is something we'll never forget.

Thanks for stopping by, your visits and comment brighten my world.
