Finishing the deck is a big job, but so rewarding when it's all done. :cool: Always a good feel to spring planting, never did try to grow broccoli or cauliflower myself, but like to eat them, good for you health too!
 
Another beautiful day in then80's for us here in Las Vegas ! I hate to say by the time I get off at 6 it will be all but over. But the check will look good! Enjoy everyone.
 
Its here !!! That storm they promised us.. Its snowing and at least 30 cms are expected..
Oh well, at least my "Snow Flowers" will still be there...

DID SOMEONE MENTION SPRING ???????
Perhaps July or August if it ever comes this year .................

At least there are NO bugs out there ................ YET !!!!!!!
 
70s here every day lately. Finally got some rain coming to the valley tonight and tomorrow. We're 3" behind since Jan 1 or 5" behind since July 1. But snow pack is what counts and that's not as bad.

Here in the People's Republic of Kalifornistan, whiskey has always been fer drinkin' and water fer fightin' over. And we still do. The thugs in the south want more and more of the north's water. And they have the political umph to do it! As a result more and more water is diverted from my beloved Delta and the salt incursion gets worse into our fresh water estuary. No wonder I want to move to Oregon.
 
OK...
So today is the first day of spring .. It sure doesn't feel like a spring day..

Well, let me say that ........

THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING AND THE FIRST SPRING DAY ...........
 
We had a quickie snowstorm again late yesterday afternoon, came down with a vengeance for a few hours. This morning it's pretty much all gone from the sidewalks and roads, but it's still cold and very windy.

... which makes me wonder where and how it went ... I mean, it's still below freezing! Did the Snow Munchkins come out and take it back to their Ice Castle? :confused:
 
For the first time in an awful long time tonight I looked up into the sky and I saw about one billion stars..
It was actually beautiful ....
Usually in the summer when we have a campfire in our back yard we see that sight, but not very often in winter.....

I love soaking in the beauty of the heavens on a starry night. :star::star: There's times when were out camping in the wilderness, and the stars are plentiful. Those night are usually the coldest, as there's no cloud cover at all for warmth, but well worth it. Stars usually mean that the next day will be nice, but that's not always the case I've found.

It's been sunny, windy and 50's this week, but last night it started snowing, and it's still coming down. So far looks like around 3 inches on the ground, 14F degrees outside. :winter1:
 
I don't see many stars here in the bright-lights city, but if I angle my chair just right and the shades across the street aren't drawn I DO get to see a few heavenly bodies ... :playful:
 
Did someone see on CNN that some group is suing the groundhog (Phil) for predicting an early spring and he was wrong ???
They are seeking the "death penalty" .....

C'mon guys.. The whole thing is a hoax and you know it ...
They want their names known and have the publicity .....

Glad you've been enjoying some 80 degree weather and catching some rays Pchinvegas! :sunshine: Although the 70s, like today would be more to my liking, that would be a perfect temp for me all summer long. ;)

We had over 8 inches of snow fall yesterday, with a high of 15 degrees. The snow has stopped and the sun is out today, but still cool. They say there's more on the way. It's all good, we need the moisture and heavy wet snows in March or even April are not that unusual.

Steve, I didn't see that group on CNN, but I hope they have enough strait-jackets for them all, lol! :p Talk about sue-happy! :mad:
 
Snowing here right now but I don't think it will amount to anything. Crossing my fingers that it won't - I am so ready for summer to arrive.... At least it doesn't get dark until around 8 so that's a good thing!!
 
WHERE IS SPRING, I WANT SPRING??!!!!

We have had nothing but overcast, drizzly cold weather for a week and a half now, and a prediction of more coming..I need sunshine. I am afraid we are going to skip a nice spring and go right into the gawdawful heat of summer. I will not stand for this!! :mad::mad:

Where is that stupid groundhog? Hiding in shame I hope.
