GL: Canal Winter

[fred]

Elaine,

A "look-keeper" is how ya spell it when your fingers are frozen solid after 
picking at the ice-jam between your toes!  In the summer time we spell it 
lock-keeper.

Oh and the locals here pronounce "Fort Edward" as "Fordedderd", no clue how 
ya would spell that one.  I think that pronunciation is due to having 
frozen lips 8 months of the year!

Hugs,

Fred

A "look keeper" is either someone who looks at the temp all day wondering 
if 
it will ever warm up or Fred has a type O and it is a LOCK keeper. I bet it 

is the first. I would be looking at the temp from indoors for sure! With a 

fire blazing in the fire place!!
