Freezing? You haven't lived my friend.

We dropped Roudy off at the airport this afternoon. But not until after we toured the Mall of America where we had a dance-off, a skee-ball tournament, met a random Israeli, and played with Legos.

I am a little disappointed in the performance of my fair state this weekend, however. Roudy had never seen snow, and I really wanted it to snow for him. It snowed a little bit, so he did get to see it, but barely anything and it didn't last. I think that if it had snowed more though he would not have been able to handle it. It isn't even very cold at all here for this time of year. Other friends in Egypt, like Thea, are shedding tears because it is 15 C there and flabergasted that we can survive in what is currently roughly -10 C. My poor warm weather brothers and sisters, come to Minnesota and experience the true meaning of freezing. But not now. Wait until it gets really cold.

Wait for Ice Fishing. Which, incidentally is January 28-30. Mark it on your calendars now!

Thanks Roudy! I had so much fun! And don't forget about my Kuwaiti Prince! I expect good news soon. Claude O. sends his love.
