The Seasons are a Changing
Yesterday was a strange weather day. It started out cool. Then the sun came out around noon and it got darn warm. Then a wind came up around 3:00. A COLD wind! And then a COLD rain.

It was a cooler, less humid weekend. This is Minnesota so we know these weather breaks are short lived (there’s a predicted high of 95 F today), so that’s all the more reason to appreciate the good times by being outside as much as possible. Steve and I headed for the Minneapolis Farmer’s Market around…

I’m going to find a way to throw that word into my conversations wherever possible… Newsflash!Another independent bookstore bites the dust!

This is how my window looked this morning. Good grief! Not another problem! Oh, well, what’s a little condensation (yeah, that’s dripping water, not ice). And I’m not going to even mention the broken door knob on the door out to the backyard. On to a more pleasant topic. Java and I started a Dog…
My Adoptive Mom, son, and niece Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mom’s out there! I hope you got a good breakfast and maybe some flowers out of it. From the time I was little until the last Mother’s Day my Mom was in her house, it was a tradition to buy her plants and…

A cheerful woman has cares but has learned how to deal with them.— Beverly Sills (1929-) American Opera Singer Last Monday morning I was cleaning up manure and I must have gotten distracted, which happens quite often to me….

Your weather, sounds just like mine! We just went through a change, where it got really windy, than the rain started. It’s been pouring for hours! I shouldn’t complain, we haven’t had much rain in months! But I really hate the wet.
It is supposed to be pretty cold tonight, and my horse shoer is out early in the morning! Yikes! I just might be wearing my long underwear!
I love what you did with the pine cones! I love that smell!
Wind is always our first sign of winter. I hear that horses get freaked out by wind so I’m glad that you weren’t at the park when it hit!
Hi Mary…I photographed trees blowing in the wind too. A crazy day.
When will you close your pool? They are a lot of work when it gets to this time of the year. I am going to have to check out the blog you wrote about. No question…meeting people from around the world has been a great experience.
I’ll have to get some video of our winter wind storms. They *are* something!
We really need to skim our pond. It’s completely overgrown with moss. I keep threatening to put on waders and just slog my away across like SWAMP THING to pull it out.
Wow, those pine cones of yours are emence!
Yes, I love to cyber meet people too…it’s like the world get smaller.
