840am. 1140am (2 hits/bong). 550pm (2 hits/bong). 740pm. 

Up 640am: Bright and sunny with temps to low 30's and winds picking up late this afternoon.

***Shoveled the walk and driveway: 725am-750am. About four inches of powder and an easy job even though the wind-chill was about zero. 

Plows hit Westview at 845am.

Watched 'THE DESCENDANTS' (Amazon Prime). A property lawyer in Hawaii with two unruly daughters must deal with the fact that his wife is about to be removed from life support after a tragic boating accident. Then he learns that his wife had been cheating on him, and if that wasn't enough, he is in the midst of the sale of a multi-million dollar land trust that had been in his family for over a century; with George Clooney, Shailene Woodley, Nick Krause, Beau Bridges, Robert Forster, Matthew Lillard, and Judy Greer. Directed by Alexander Payne: Won 1 Oscar- 65 wins & 148 nominations...With regard to inheritance: 'You give your children enough to do something, but not enough to do nothing'. I had forgotten how good this movie was and the state of Hawaii is almost like another character in the film. 

Watched the last episode of ''REACHER' season #1 (Amazon Prime). To create counterfeit currency, ink and printing plates can be duplicated but the paper cannot. 80% of US currency are $100 bills, so you take one dollar bills and use them as blanks to print one hundred dollar bills. With regard to the film, too many killed to be believed. Wars have been won with less dead bodies and in rural Georgia this would have made the international news.

1250pm: PC is 'Off' and preparing for a walk on the treadmill.

105pm: FIVE MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND 1.0 SLANT (increase) and began JOEY DIAZ on J.R.E.

In the tub with 'HOW TO DO NOTHING' and listening to LEE MORGAN, FELA KUTI. 

Watched 'A KIND OF MURDER'(Amazon Prime- leaving soon). A successful architect is in an unhappy marriage and suspects that a local book seller is a murderer. Based on a novel (THE BLUNDERER) by Patricia Highsmith. Set in the early 60's and chock full of costumes and sets from that era; with Patrick Wilson, Jessica Biel, Haley Bennett, and Eddie Marsan.
