Early morning DUers check in!
Edited on Sat Mar-12-05 06:20 AM by Longgrain
It's not even 6:30 A.M. where I am.

It's cold, snowing, I could sleep all day, yet here I am...

Anyone else an early riser?

28. I am up and ready to do something...
Start a fire in the fire place....then finish the flooring in my kitchen....

Its cold outside...in the teens... but... West Michigan is beautiful today... it snowed last night and the trees are covered with a very light type of snow that stays on the trees until the wind blows... it is awesome...

I will have to get out and take a few pictures... that is a hobby of mine..:-)
