34 this morning with a beautiful sunrise in process. We should see 60 or so but clouds are moving in. No rain expected today maybe a 20% chance tomorrow. Hitting the golf course today getting in a little fun before I decide to hit the yard work with a vengeance. I have an area that needs some fill and then a reseeding, time to get with it! Plus all the normal tasks

currently 66 on its way to 71 with a somewhat ominous forecast, "Cloudy, windy and humid with a couple of showers and a heavy t-storm; storms can bring flooding downpours, hail, damaging wind gusts, and an isolated tornado" .... as noted above on the 9th, yesterday afternoon we got word our Sportchassis is ready to be picked up at the body shop ... our hope was to complete packing and hookup for tomorrow's scheduled drive to Raleigh Oaks .... the forecast says heavy/steady rain is going to move in shortly and last into tonight .... looks like we will have to take care of everything in the morning ....

additional note :

shortly after posting the above, our lights flickered a couple of times and then went out .... previous experiences indicate that either something fell on a line or took out a power pole .... in addition, while it has calmed down right now, when the power went out the predicted high wind could easily be seen in the tree tops .... Maureen was the first to report the outage .... since then, we have received text saying thousands are affected and they expect to have the power back on around 2PM .... with our home internet is out we've fallen back on our traveling MIFI .....

OK, things have changed again .... our power just came back one so things are back to normal ...

Today the new owner is coming to pick up the old RV and then that chapter
of our life is over. We had her for twelve years and a lot of miles.

beautiful morning .... 59 on its way to 71 later today .... 40% chance of a thundershower in spots this afternoon .... packing our camper this morning for an hour tow to camp with our club through Monday .... this is our next to last planned outing before we head for South Dakota in late May .... as such, we hope to test as many of the camper's systems as is possible

44 heading to around 60 with partly cloudy skies. Maybe a thunderstorm this afternoon but the chances are small. Nice weekend on tap with sunny and 70+ both days. Making fresh ice now with the intent to grill some New York steaks and enjoy a gin and tonic tomorrow. Hello spring!

Today is prep the yard for this weekends de-thatching and fertilizing. I guess it’s time to remove my snow stakes from the driveway, could have done that six weeks ago. My neighbors must think I’m nuts. I also need to smooth out the gravel, my driveway has a steep but short hill at the beginning plus a nearly 180 degree turn from the road. UPS and similar trucks make this turn and then punch the gas and cause big dips in the driveway. Nothing that a shovel, rake and my tractor bucket can’t take care of in short order.
