HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANDREW

Well today is Andrew Goulder's 13th birthday HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANDREW and he is going to celebrate his birthday bu heading to school today.  It looks like some much milder temps are on the way to Colonial Heights over the next several days with highs around 60 by Sunday and temps will not drop to freezing Sunday through Wednesday night which is good news an it is going to be be dry over that period as well.  The Nascar Sprint Cup Series will have its 1st test of the season tomorrow night with the running of the Bud Shootout at Daytona which is a non points race and then they began qualifying for the Daytona 500 on Sunday and then they will set the rest of the field for the 500 with the 2 qualifying races next Thursday.  I sure am glad that it is Friday.  MICKEY

Cold showers. A small body of scientific literature indicates exposure to cold water may increase the body’s natural antioxidants which may keep the flu away.
