I've hit the wall of winter where I'm sick of snow, tired of having to watch for hidden patches of ice and officially OVER the never-ending breathe-stealing cold. I'm tired of wool, tired of polar fleece and am more than ready to put all my heavy coats in storage.

And then I see something in the news like this story of how a couple of 5 and 7 year-olds in Australia wandered through their backyard just in time to see a 16 foot wild python had already half-swallowed their little terrier-Chihuahua mix dog.

Suddenly chapped lips and numb feet don't seem so bad, at least the frigid temperatures keeps our region giant snake-free.
