Evening Kathy. Woohoo! Top 10?
Happy Passover! (Finishing touches on my cleaning.)
And Happy Passover...just getting ready to post it.
Hi Everybody!
(((HUGS)))
Good evening Kathy and thanks for honoring tonight’s Hero!
Good evening, Janey...((HUGS))...hope you are having nice spring weather.
Spring might be here to stay...I’m hoping. Not much sun, but we are almost to 24 hours above freezing and melting is coming along nicely.
Greetings to all at the Canteen!
To all our military men and women, past and present,
THANK YOU
for your service!

the day of the start of the war in Afghanistan.
We are indebted to you for your sacrifices for our Freedom.
Howdy, Kathy.
Could Spring really be moving in to stay up there? It isn’t as warm today as it was yesterday but it’s staying above freezing. Even without sunshine, melting is noticeable today. Looks like rain is moving your way and that’ll help melt snow even more - - provided the temps stay up!
Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...nice hiking weather?
Hope you and Tippy had a fun weather weekend that allowed you to get out and stretch your legs.
Good evening, Pro...did you and son get some time together?
We seem to have just reached 24 hours above freezing...sure helps with the melting. And I can see grass!
Good evening, radu...are you ambulatory?
Warm today, but no sun at all. Looks like rain, which would be a good thing. We need a good cleansing rain.
Please, please, please let there be rain. Lots of melting and everything is dusty, dirty.
When I can get to the backyard, I will be able to start wacking away at the hated bushes, the results of trees being cut down.
I can get down the stairs, but not over the berm of roof snow.
Howdy, luvie.
I hope it’s been nicer there than it has here today. Chilly and windy here. We’re dealing with Strawberry Winter this weekend.
Hey there, Kathy.
Yes, I’m ambulatory but in small spurts. LOL Do a little something, sit for a little while.
I’ve read in chat that rain is expected up there. There’s some on the radar and maybe you’ll get some.
As long as it’s rain, let ‘er rip! LOL A Lake Hood chatter who lives in Anchorage mentioned how dusty and dirty it’s gotten lately. The huge piles of snow around the parking lots at the airports look nasty and brown these days. Thee should be a contest on how long it takes for those piles to melt. :-)
I’m ready to see all the snow melt and things start turning green again and I’d all of you are too. You had a loooooooong winter.
Good luck with those bushes once you can finally start whacking them again. I have some whacking to do around here too. The fun never ends, does it? LOL
Hey there, radu!
It was a tiny bit warmer, but still chilly enough that I wore cords and a heavy sweater to church. Since we’ve had some warm days already, my mind and body had gotten used to it, so 59 late this afternoon felt cooler than was comfortable. The kitties seemed ok with it though.
Strawberry winter. Before you had mentioned it, I had never heard of such a thing. I guess you have to be able to grow strawberries to talk about it. LOL! If there is a cactus winter, we got it! ๐คฃ Hope it passes pretty quickly there!
