The NFL Eagles played the Packers last night in Brazil and they wouldn't let the Eagles wear green because that is the color of the local soccer team's biggest rival. The Packers were designated as the visiting team so they could wear green. I bet the locals were happy that the evil green team lost. 

As a Bears fan...I'm glad the evil green team lost. :)  LOL

We got our first snow of the year last night, and it started again this morning. It's that horrible wet snow that's leaving thick slush everywhere. We're due for freezing temperatures over the next few nights, so I'm expecting the roads to be very slippery. I briefly ventured into town after lunch and they were already quite bad. I don't think we got snow last year (at least none that settled) so we're not used to it here. All the shops were closing early tonight and people have been panic buying supplies for a few days. My friend's daughter's family are out in the country, and they're cut off for now.

Panic buying is going on down in Virginia right now where they are expecting a major winter storm. We have a lot of snow on the ground here on Lake Erie and no temps above freezing predicted for at least a week. Too bad you didn't get that snow for Christmas Hoss. 

I'm not saying we're nearly as badly affected as some US states, but we never seem to be prepared for it. Very few people would have winter tires as it happens so infrequently. I'm back to work tomorrow and even though I only have to drive across town, I'm not looking forward to the journey. Even the main roads weren't clear today.

It was Aunt Lavinia in 'Return of the Ridge Raiders'.

Bo and Luke come under suspicion for the Ridge Raiders exploits.

Jesse: "Boys, I'm gonna need some ... some breathing space for about three or four days. Now, I tell you what, why don't you go over and visit with Aunt Lavinia? You'll be safe there, and then ... then I'll catch up with you."
[Sighs and hugs]
Jesse: "See you later, Luke, Bo."
Luke: "Be careful."
[Jesse drives off]
Luke: "Heck, he ain't even spoke to Aunt Lavinia in over 20 years."

Daisy went off "to visit Aunt Kate for a couple of days" in 'To Catch a Duke', to help her "back on her feet
from her miseries". It was the only episode that Cathy didn't appear in because she was filming 'Circus of the Stars'.

Of course, Aunt Kate should not be confused with Aunt Katie in 'Duke of Duke' who preferred go by Katrina and not Katherine!
