You gotta love crazy spring weather!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. The more people talk about what needs to be done, maybe the easier it will be to get through it! I hope!

Hope summer comes back for one more command performance!

As much as I would like another huge dump of snow, it’ll be good when life returns to normal too!

May the wind always be at your side. May the sun shine warm upon your face, and rains fall soft upon your car until you capture an awesome view of one of nature’s most terrific shows! Be safe and have fun!

Was interested to see that the record low was 47 in 1974. I was working as a camp counselor in the Cascades that summer, and I remember pulling out some long underwear. Hard to imagine today!
