A Lot Accomplished Yesterday!

 I've gotten a head start on a lot of projects, thanks to the terrific weather lately. It won't be long before I start buying stuff at garden centers. I have a good idea of what I'll be needing, to get the landscaping I want. I love messing around with stuff like that. It will all be hidden, of course, for me to enjoy, and for me ALONE to enjoy. Last year I put in a major effort to create a privacy fence. And now it is time for me to refine that private space. I'll need pavers, some more tools, some planters, some stone material to define paths, and so on. It'll be pretty awesome when done. Well, actually, it will never be done. And that's the beauty of it.

Terrific Morning!

 We are off to a good start!







It might be a little breezy today but not enough to raise any dust, I think. I'd like to have open windows this evening. This time of year is a little awkward in terms of climate. After so many years here, I should be used to it. We might have a record high tomorrow, in advance of a front that will drop our highs back into the sixties. Ah, the sixties. I remember them well!

Getting Warmer Every Day!

 We are in for some record heat and at this time of year that record heat will be very pleasant indeed! No rain in sight, so that snowfall was a good thing. A bit of a pain, but all in all, a very good thing. Meanwhile, I have taken significant steps.

Cold This Morning

 But it is clear and by mid-week we will be in the eighties. Sounds really good to me. Doing more and spending a bit more to improve the yard. I like what I've got behind my privacy fence, for the most part. I'm thinking about stuff I could plant, maybe in April, late. It'll have to be tough as nails.

Cold Today!

 But not so cold tomorrow and then it REALLY warms up!







Whatever happened to Joe Ely? He used to do an annual Tornado Jam here. I could do a google search but I'd rather just wonder and not know. Keep it a mystery. I think this would be a good day for spaghetti. With mushrooms and EVO. And a light sprinkle of cheese. Maybe I'll do that later. Maybe I'll add some tomatoes, too.
