28 right now in Waco. Stopped on our way to Round Rock. Had slight drizzle which was icing on the sides of the windsheild when we got close to Waco.

Fortunately it has recently been warm in the area, so the roads have some captured heat and it will be above freezing later tomorrow morning. But I heard there were at least ten cars trapped on the Hwy. 71/I-35 overpass in SE Austin this evening.

I was cooling my home late yesterday afternoon. We experienced the largest temperature drop on record in a 24 hour period ... 56 degrees (88 to 32) ... Tuesday 3pm -> Wednesday 3pm.

The last time I went to a tournament in cold weather was in Minute Maid Park and we lost a couple of pitchers to injuries during that tournament. This included our highly touted ace; his name escapes me now. He was supposed to be a Friday night starter. Supposedly the weather was a big factor in those injuries. We cannot afford to lose early pitchers.

Just looked at weather for RR. Ice from @3 AM to mid day tomorrow. Good chance of rain Saturday. And cold. Be safe.

Thanks Boomer! Lost my brother-in-law last week and his mother this week. It's been tough on the family, bit it seems like many people are going through the same life changes.

I lost an uncle two weeks ago and my older brother last Friday. Death is part of life....but it still sucks.

Through it all, death still does not seem normal.

My condolences.

Momma Gump ...... Dying is a part of Living

Forrest...... I wish it wasn't

As a great baseball coach once said, "there are two dates on a head stone. Between those two dates is a life". It's up to you to make the time between those two dates mean something.

Condolences Jay. Yes death is tough, especially when you didn't have a chance to say goodbye.

Condolences to you Jay. It is unfortunate, however a bunch of us here are all getting to the age where this is inevitable . . .

Sounds like a Robeism.
