Good morning or good evening, wherever you may be. It is just past 4:00 a.m. in "This City." Between dropped internet connections and other odds and ends, I actually started this blog at 2:15 a.m., but didn't finish it until now. A current temperature of 43° that feels like 37°, is as low as it is supposed to get overnight. Later today, after the sun rises at 6:37 a.m. and long before it sets at 5:31 p.m., the real temperature will get to 58°. Since the skies will be sunny, the temperature will feel much warmer, just as it did yesterday. Too bad that the temperatures will not get above 45° on Tuesday.

Yesterday, I got to the ukulele jam at the music store as Mary completed the errands she had scheduled. Afterwards, we traveled to the VW car show I referenced in the previous blog. Sadly, not much was happening. A couple of cars, that really didn't merit a picture.

We soon made our way home again and hit a few antique stores along the route. Mary got a book of Grimm's Fairy Tales and a needlepoint of a unicorn. I had to be sure to note that it is needlepoint, not crossstitch.

As we tried to pass through downtown Pensacola, we were detoured by the Mardis Gras Parade floats and crowds. Like the traffic direction in Pensacola seemingly goes most of the time, the police department directed traffic to the detour, but when the detour ended at a busy highway, no police officer was there to stop the cross traffic.

Today we're off to Pensacola once again to see the musical Quilters: A Frontier Musical at the "Little Theater" near downtown at 2:30 p.m. I'm looking forward to the experience. While we're out, the Mardis Gras Parade will be taking place here on "The Beach." That means that the road to and from our little piece of paradise will be closed for about two hours from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Of course, the "Big Game", the 50th Super Bowl, is on here at about 5:30 p.m. We have plans for our snacks and meals for that.

So, that's enough for one day. Ciao.
