Elk: In from the cold.

It's cold here. How cold? Apparently we had an elk come in through the dog door last night and leave us a present -- right on the kitchen counter top. Actually, come to think of it, maybe I got out a handful of prunes (remember, I'm an old geezer) and left them sitting instead of eating them.

What a winter. The news said a couple of hours ago that the anemometer on the weather station at the Eisenhower Tunnel on I-70 broke in a huge gust. They also said cars were having their windows blown out by the gusts. Wow -- even when the wind hit 115 a couple of weeks ago at Rocky Flats it didn't destroy the equipment. I wonder how intense that wind gust was?
