Mercury his 27 below!

Friday morning marked the coldest day in Galesburg in 104 years. Our luck to relocate here for that, eh?

And get this... how fortunate are our students? Not only did they have 2 days of school canceled (giving them a 6 day weekend instead of the 4 day previously scheduled), but it was also FINALS on those 2 days. AND, the high school decided the students wouldn't have to make them up! (unless they want/need to to help their grade). They absolutely lucked out!

Well, something has to make you miss California every once in awhile! Stay warm!

Shelby says, "That's almost cold enough to raise penguins! But, the penguins need to be below 37 degress." Imagine that! You could almost have a pet penguin. LOL! And leave it to Shelby to know what temps penguins live in . . .
