Well, I have not blogged for a few days, but due to the lack of emails lately compared to what I usually get, I am assuming everyone has been busy watching the political and economic fronts and so the blog was not getting much attention. We have some cool things happening, literally and figuratively, so its time to update you all again.It is the season for hay rack rides and pumpkins, the time of year when you are supposed to rake your leaves and let the little ones play in the pile (by the way, do NOT burn your leaves while the kids are still in them!). Unfortunately, any dream you might have had about a romantic walk in the park or playing with the kids in the leaves is about to be blown to smithereens!
We have a really strong low pressure system that is organizing with an eye on Nebraska for the middle of the week, and if you have not heard, this system is not only going to bring the chilly rain we are experiencing today, but is about to bring 40 to 50 MPH winds and the chance of 4 to 6 (or 8?) inches of snow!
Now, we are Nebraskans, so snow is not all that frightening, but we have games to bring the kids to, students that are new to the driving scene, and of course, many of us have not even winterized our cars. Folks, take a few moments and get ready for this. Leave earlier, check tire pressure, and get some warm clothes and a blanket and get them in the trunk of the jalopy BEFORE you wish you had. This is severe winter weather, even though its early, and now is not the time to procrastinate.
We’re going to see high winds following the drop in temps from the 50’s we have now to the lower 40’s, and the nights will be COLD.
This storm system is expected to organize late in the day today, and by Wednesday we’ll start to see that snow right through much of Thursday. Traveling will be difficult with the high winds (gusts to 50 MPH), so watch yourself in those high profile vehicles.
Now, since we are talking about “cool” weather, here’s another cool thing:
In about two weeks we will be releasing a new website. The Chasing4Life fan Club website is about finished, and if you would like to be one of the first to be in the guestbook, email me at info@chasing4life.org and we’ll give you the “hidden link” so you can get a sneak peak.
The new website is being managed by an old friend and fan and hosts a calendar, contest information, a Chasing4Life store, photo gallery and more! Plans are to release the new video about Chasing4Life’s founder entitled “How I Got Here” on the fan club website!
The fan club has been created because so many of you have asked for one and requested special events just for fans, so the site will keep you updated about fan events, special opportunities, releases and trips! We’ll have contests, like the old “Chase the Chaser” contest we had a few years ago, and we’ll be adding more and more merchandise to the Chasing4Life Fan Club Store every month.
So let’s review. Cool weather and cool new site. Be prepared for both.
