Back To The Dry

 And later this week we get close to being "hot". Interesting. 

This morning it is somewhat cold. Interesting. 

A Little Cool

 Cold tomorrow morning, but lots of sun and warming again tomorrow, and quite warm by midweek next week. No rain in sight. Dry again. 

Same old same old and I like that a lot. 

Big Wind Big Dust

 Spring is off to a good start here-- we got a small sample of what we will be in for the next few months. High winds and blowing dust, orange sky and reduced visibility. 

But it wasn't snow and ice, and that's a good thing. 

What Do You Know?

 Wind and dust and dust and wind and we are having our first taste of springtime in Lubbock, on the high plains of Texas. Yee Haw! It sucks. It'll be like this off and on for months. The rain we had recently just did not do much good. It's shaping up to be one of our crappier years, weatherwise. Nasty. The wind is supposed to die down later this afternoon but then the dust will fall from the sky and anything and everything outside in the morning will be coated with a reddish film of grime and grit. But I'd rather have this crap than snow and ice. 

Just think, Buddy Holly put up with stuff like this, and in those days it was much, much, worse. 

No More Rain

 It will become quite warm very soon, and rain chances vanish again. We had that one good downpour, at least.

I remember the Berlin Airlift, President Eisenhower, Senator McCarthy, and the Korean War. I remember when things like toothpaste came in lead tubes. I remember milk delivered to one's porch. Yes, I remember when the milkman came.
