Good 48º cloudy morning. Hit 74º yesterday! Wow. Felt like summer. Still had a fire in the wood stove last night! Sooooo snuggy. I am going to miss them in the summer.
20% chance of rain today. 60% chance tonight. The clouds this morning are beautiful...
These taken about 30 minutes apart.
And then after another 20 minutes...
So, when I was out taking the pictures I was standing next to the bluebird birdhouse... Mr. Bluebird flew up to the top of this tree...
Keeping an eye on me! And The Princess watched from her stacked up bed...
Yesterday Maggie and I went to Grants Pass. Stopped in Brian's office. He gave me a wazoo flashlight.. It's a Streamlight Stinger LED. It has over twice the light of a regular Streamlight. It even has a flash mode that is so cool. It lights up the outside in the dark like WOW!
Then a stop at the post office to mail stuff and back home. Later we went to get our mail and take Dave a jar of my famous zucchini sweet relish. I think Dave just eats it out of the jar! LOL. The clouds were weird yesterday... taken from PJ and Dave's house...
They sort of resembled ribbons the way they were twisting...

Good morning. Tell the dog to move over. That bed looks comforable):-
Natasha Richardson's death was tragic. Glad that when I turned down medical care after a fall it ended better for me. One never knows.Sad to forget that when it is most important,
LOL, L you are funny. I'm sure the bed is comfortable, but I know it smells like a dog!
Sue,
John gave me a flashlight like that for Christmas. I keep it on a charger next to my bed.
I remember when that ValueJet went down in the Everglades. So sad.
Irving Berlin sure looked like Tyrone Power. He should have played him in a movie.
XO Trisha
T, I shined the flashlight into the trees last night and could see eyes looking back at me!!!!
