That is just so sick. And I was disappointed that it's going to rain tonight so I won't be able to cut my grass till after lunch tomorrow.

Now I feel almost, heavy on the almost, guilty.

Of course I did manage to get the Flying Cloud out from it's winter (snigger) airport and wash it down today and spent a bit of time in my lawn chair watching it dry, sipping tea and listening to oldies. A tough day all around I see.

Hi, I'm with you all; I don't know how much more of this I can take. Must have been all the way down to 57 degrees last night. Brrrrrrrrr.

OK, now I understand. It's always sad with the Airstream is snowed under, unless you are camped at a ski hill and it is there on purpose. We are enjoying unusually sunny weather so far but typically we are still into the rainy season about this time. I'm sure there's much more of that to come but for the moment we'll enjoy the warm temps, flowers out, and time on the deck. I'm amazed at how many birds we have out back this year compared to the prior few years. My creek out back typically dries up for June to September but already it's low compared to other years. I hope this isn't a trend.

I did notice in todays newspaper that a large number of Canadian Scientists are indicating that harsher weather is going to be the norm. Drier West Coast, drought potential on the Prairies, much more snow and wind for Ontario, Quebec and the Atlantic Provinces and the latter in particular can expect a lot of snow and cold winters. I suspect that this is similar to what the US is also anticipating. So it's a good thing we have our Airstreams so we can bounce around the country to the various warm spots at different times of the year.

Take care and don't shovel that stuff. Too hard on the heart. Trust me on that one,

When I took that pic yesterday there were two Robins in our Lilac Bush,

wasn't fast enough with the camera but it was an interesting contrast.

It sure has been a crazy Winter, this is the first REAL snow we've had this

year. Sure hope it doesn't carry thru the rest of the season.
