Well, the snow was pretty while it lasted, but these warm temperatures are making it go away rather quickly.
This Sunday we may see temps near seventy degrees, and maybe a thunderstorm. All on the first day of winter.
It is one of the more endearing aspects of living here. The weather can take a rollercoaster ride, from below freezing to short sleeve weather. All in the same week.
I gather we are above our rainfall requirements. That is good for the water table, and our wells should be healthy for the time being.
I have to admit, around here, it is never dull. We have the hawks back. The bluebirds visited the bird bath during the freezing weather last week. The robins are all over the lawn now that the snow has melted.
We are overrun with deer again. Although they seem to be getting hit by cars on a weekly basis not far from our house. They also are starting to eat the tips of our azaleas, a sure sign they are having difficulty finding enough food.
Enough about the weather. This is the final weekend before Christmas. Time to finish the shopping, wrapping, cooking and keep the Christmas music as the background as I work.
Only a few days left. Have a safe holiday. And, do something nice for someone who doesn’t expect it.
