[AT] Good tractor day

[David Bruce]

Ralph,

I'm in North Carolina near where Spencer lives (in fact probably less 
than 15 miles away).  Some miles west of Charlie.
Yesterday was very nice (a typical oddity we seem to get for a day or so 
every February).  Temperatures in the low 60's F, sun and little wind.
Today was cooler, overcast rainy and breezy.  Forecast is for snow 
Sunday night.  They say maybe enough to measure this time.  So far this 
winter we've had less than 1/2 inch of snow.
