We had cold temps and strong winds overnight.  Our flag pole, which has stood anchored to our deck for the last 30 years, snapped in half sometime during the night.  The flag is hung up in the trees while the top half of the pole is leaning on the deck railing.  The weather was just too miserable today to deal with it--we'll have to wait until the temps warm up and the winds die down.

This morning John continued to work on his project in the shop while I did some cleaning up around the house.  Matt called and asked if John would like to ride along to Fargo where he had to pick up some football gear for Sam and was gone until late this afternoon.  He told me that once you got west of Bagley there was no snow at all.  The Homecoming football game was canceled for this evening and will be played tomorrow afternoon.  The visiting team is from the area of the state that got 17" of snow so hopefully they will be able to be make it by then.  

We spent a pretty quiet evening watching some TV and working on the computer trying to organize more photos.
