It felt more like June-uary. Tuesday has turned out to be a gorgeous day, but how long will that last? All day maybe?

Only a few teaser days so far, so that must mean it will be a warm late summer, right?

It has been so cold; I’m surprised any gardens are growing. Some folks haven’t even planted yet. Hopefully it will warm up soon.

They seem to take great pleasure in bothering our dogs while they nap in the sunshine.
