Gone fishin'

Well, not exactly. But I will be taking some time off to chill out, enjoy the Holidays with family and friends, do some stargazing, take naps and read stuff just for fun.  

I don't plan to post to the WeatherBlog while I'm off, but I will check in from time to time and see what if anything people are talking about. I may even forget myself and pipe up with a post or two. In the meantime, don't hesitate to send questions for the print editions' Weather Page. I'll need material for the week I get back. Don't leave me hangin' out here.

Thanks for reading the WeatherBlog in 2007. Have a terrific, and safe Holiday, and we'll see you on the other side.

Cheers,  Frank

Thank you for your all efforts on Maryland Weather. Everyone here in Woodstock appreciates it. Looking forward to next year in the Sun and on the blog.

Hey Frank- I always enjoy your blogs and particularly, at this time of year, the piece about happenings in the sky for the upcoming year. So I hope you are working on that along with the relaxation. Charlie

FR- Charlie, thanks for the nice words. The 2008 stargazing calendar is in the can, and should appear in the paper in the next few days.
