Mid 50s today.  Maybe a shower later. It's going to get cold tomorrow morning but no where near Illinois temps.  It looks like high 40s to low 50s over the next 7 days.  Coffee is excellent too. ;D ;D ;D

Looking at our Lansing,  MI two week forecast there are only three daytime predictions of below freezing temps. I'll take it!   8)

I just shipped fish to Hollywood FL.  It's cool during the night and not warm enough for the fish to be happy in both places.  I hope what I did was right.  I shipped them in a C Rate box which has lots of room for 2 8" bags, but a heat pack in a box and surrounded it with lots of news paper.  I don't THINK the fish will cook.   It's difficult knowing the right thing to do with shipping when the temps are not quite high enough that a heat pack will kill them, but never reach their preferred level of warmness.  It's easier when it's hot or when it's cold.
