May 4th, wood stove keeping me warm in my recliner, and it’s snowing out there again. We are going to go straight from winter to summer this year.

More snowflakes coming down, sigh, but at least the snowstorm missed us yesterday. 15-18” of snow south of us. Yuck!!!!

A touch of color to brighten the mood, a cardinal in my lilac bush,

and my new orchid (I was so excited when I repotted it and found there were two separate orchids in the pot),

and some funny Internet pics,



and dogshaming.com

If I didn’t live in Minnesota, what would I have to complain about? 81° on Saturday, and today there’s a winter weather advisory on until tomorrow night, with snow coming down already.

An really cool weather video,

Minnesota, where you can see an old fart (excuse the language) driving his motorcycle, white hair flying in the breeze along with the snowflakes, and where you can have winter storm warnings on Tuesday and get bit by mosquitoes on Saturday.

Got to love it.
