I’m pretty tired this evening. Still recovering from the cold I’ve had but it’s hardly been a severe cold. I will rest up tonight.

Good morning! Happy Tuesday. Light snow is coming down and it’s 25 degrees in Albany. Today will be cloudy, with a high near 33. Southeast wind 3 to 5 mph. Kind of a sloppy morning with the inch of wet snow around from last night’s snow squalls. Treated surfaces are just wet and the sidewalks are plowed but some places like my driveway aren’t real clear. I wore my hunting boots to work. I’m hopeful the warm temperatures will melt the snow, so I won’t have to clean off my car for the weekend.

There are 20 days until Leap Day. They extend Presidential Election years just to make our lives more miserable. They should move leap day to more pleasant month of the year.

Today in 1950, Senator Joseph McCarthy announced that the United States Department of State was full of communists. Despite what contemporary Republicans are claiming, Mr. McCarthy was not referring to Hillary Clinton. It is certainly interesting on how history has turned on Joe McCarthy.
