My apologies to those who name neighborhoods; this house was located in Pioneer Hills. After a brief 3 mile drive from work, I pulled into the driveway for a quick hash-on-the-go. It was raining, but not enough to qualify for drowned rat. For the second day in a row I failed to check the thermometer also. I'll save that for smashing the cold record instead of merely breaking it.

I got right up to the siding of the house for a measurement, just a few meters shy of the point. I noticed the fences festooned with Beware of Dog signs, hopped back in my dry car, and left. Left no signs, left at the stop sign, and finally left the neighborhood. I made it home in time to meet the kids at the bus stop.
