Our morning began with cloudy skies, but since then, it has cleared up nicely and with the tree color, it is gorgeous outdoors.  The temperatures will be above normal today with highs expected in the upper 60s.  W […]

The forecast for this weekend is perfect for this time of year.  Highs should reach into the 60s with just a slight chance of rain tonight.  Otherwise, skies will be clear to partly cloudy.  Winds won’t be too st […]

We had another frost last night but the flowers that are left in my garden seem to be resident to it.  I should go out and pick whatever tomatoes that are left if not frost damaged.  Today will still be quite c […]

Yesterday was not a nice day.  It began with drizzle and light sprinkles which left 0.05″ in my rain gauge.  Then the wind picked up in the afternoon and 30 mph gusts were not uncommon.  Although today will al […]

Yesterday was quite nice until storms started to brew over the state.  We took a trip to a cider mill and bought some donuts and cider.  Then we took them to the Holly Rec area where we ate some of them and just e […]

Everything was white early this morning and I’m assuming that my garden is really done for the year.  my dahlias and mums still look pretty good but  we’ll see how that goes.  Mums are usually quite resistant to […]

This morning is bringing us a little sun before the clouds roll in later today.  Yesterday was very cold . . . . at least it felt very cold with the brisk wind.  It was the first day where it was cold enough to n […]

Yesterday was quite wet and dreary but showers ended late.  Today should bring a little sunshine but much colder temperatures.  I think that our warm weather is over for the year.  There was 0.25″ in my rain ga […]

We had four lovely days this week, but every good thing must come to an end.  The forecast for the weekend and next week sounds more like November than October.  The trees are getting more color everyday, e […]

We better enjoy today because tomorrow will bring in a big change in our weather.  We will see significant drops in the temperatures that are expected to last through next week.  At this time, there isn’t much r […]

These past few days have really brought the color out on the trees.  I guess it just takes some cold weather to do the trick.  The past few days have been sunny and quite warm, but the nights are very chilly.  La […]

Monday was a beautiful day with sun all day long and just enough breeze to help dry the ground out a bit.  Highs made it into the upper 60s, so it was quite pleasant.  We can expect this weather to last most of t […]

After a very wet start to our October, we are finally getting some fine autumn weather.  This entire week is supposed to be dry with plenty of sun and normal temperatures.  Our weekend was quite nice although we d […]

Yesterday was the first time that we had the furnace on all day.  Temperatures only make it up to the mid 50s and the wind made it even colder.  At least we didn’t get any rain.  Today’s forecast differs de […]

We have received almost three inches of rain over the past three days and this deary weather is taking a toll on my mood.  I haven’t been by the river lately but I’m sure that it is well over it’s banks.  At l […]

The system which brought record snowfall to Montana is now over us, and I guess we should just be happy that we are getting rain and not snow.  It started raining yesterday morning and continued throughout the […]

Although temperatures today will be almost record setting, with the heat comes another round of heavy rain.  This will probably be the last of our 80 degree weather for the year, but I just wish that we had sun […]

We decided to pack up and return home one day early because of the weather.  Rain was forecasted for most of Sunday and Monday morning, so we got on the road just as it started.  It rained all the way home.  Sa […]

All it did yesterday was rain.  We spent most of the day driving around and visiting relatives in Cheboygan, so it was a nice day in spite of the rain.  Today should be dry but not much sun.  Our campground is cl […]

We have been very lucky so far with rain.  It has happened overnight and our days have been nice.  Yesterday was much nicer than what was predicted and highs even made it into the low 70s.  Today is expected to be […]
