Rainy Camping
Tonight my brother and I were invited to our neighbor’s for dinner. She wanted to have an outside picnic. The weather was questionable, but seemed ok when we sat at the outside tables. It did start sprinkling on the guys, so we had to rearrange a bit. We got to talking about camping in the […]
Another Beach Day
Yesterday my grandson said he wanted to see the lighthouse at sunrise. So, we set the alarm for 4:30 am and headed out. It was overcast and drizzling, but that didn’t put a damper on our enthusiasm. We stayed in the car for a bit waiting and watching. We took a few photos and then […]
Hiking
Our Spring weather has been very erratic. Warm, windy, rainy, and even a little snowy. But today was absolutely beautiful. The temperature was mild, the sun was shining, the wind was calm, and the sky was a gorgeous deep blue. When I woke up this morning, I thought it would be a good day for […]
All the Weather
My son and his fiancee went to a wedding over the weekend. I told them I would pick them up from the airport tonight. The weather has been unsettled, so I checked the hourly forecast and radar. It showed there would be some rain showers probably on the way back. Still, I knew that may […]
Dad Interviewed
I continue to sift through files, folders, and boxes of treasures. Today I found some more of my dad’s military information including housing, promotions, and awards. I also came across an airman’s magazine that included an article about him and the Air Weather Service. It highlighted their work watching the sun and doing their part […]
Being Courageous
Today was sunny and warm, but very windy, so much so that there was a High Wind Warning. I planned on taking a day trip to the cabin but questioned whether it would be a good idea, especially since I was going alone. I examined the weather report carefully. There was really nothing in it […]
Snowy Fields
It was such warm weather today, I decided to take a walk around a nearby park. This particular park has a couple of playgrounds and a large artificial turf field that can be used to play several soccer or football games at one time. It was super windy when I arrived. I always wear a […]
Shoveling Relief
It snowed a little last night as a very cold front moves through the area. In the complex where I live, the HOA pays for snow removal if it snows 3″ or more. Unfortunately for me, there was only 1″-2″ outside. I waited to see if it would snow again and perhaps make it up […]
Christmas Miracle Rescue
I received a Christmas card and letter from a friend the other day who gave an update about her family. I was surprised to hear that one of her adult sons was recently involved in a life threatening experience. I chatted with her a bit today and read a couple of articles about the ordeal. […]
Pool in the Snow
A friend of mine flew into the big city near me yesterday. She was staying at a resort for a conference that was to begin tonight. I was going to go see her, but the roads were too treacherous. However, I was very happy to see the roads were clear this morning and I was […]
