Cold morning!

We're experiencing one of the coldest mornings in Denver in awhile! I think we set a new record low for this date of -7°F, with the previous record being -2° back in 1953. Still, it warmed up enough, that I ventured out with Mandy for a post-breakfast late-morning walk. It was a beautiful sunny day, but I'm glad the wind wasn't any stronger.


I had a funny moment at the restaurant this morning, when my server came over to sit with me for a few seconds. She asked if I was some kind of restaurant reviewer, and I said no, I'm just a frequent food eater. I think someone there must've noticed that I occasionally post on social media about the places where I eat, and jumped to a conclusion. So, you may never know what's being said about you.

Anti-RoboCall Article

Here's another good article on dealing with Robocalls, those annoying sales and malicious calls made by automated systems. Some good tips for anti-robo technology. I started using the "Call Protect" app from AT&T on my cell phone last year, and it's so much fun, to see incoming calls labeled as "Suspected Spam" and "Telemarketer." It makes me giggle. But really, I've learned that the simplest way to avoid being annoyed by automated telemarketing calls, is to only answer calls from numbers that are already in my contacts, or whose caller ID I recognize as someone I know. I'm counting on a legitimate caller who isn't in my contacts to be willing to leave me a message.
