Had heavy frost this morning, but weatherman is saying it's getting up to the 60's today and mostly sunny! Woohoo!!!! And, I'm cooking out rib eyes and potatoes on the grill tonight for my best friend, and then we are going to sit on the deck and have a bottle of wine, and enjoy the ponds ... and lots of girl talk, I'm sure!

It was almost 60 the other day, but right now it is 27 ... tiny bit of ice on the pond again ... weather channel is saying a high of 41 today, but given it is almost 10 am, I am having a hard time believing it...

Not too bad today. I see one small area up there in the clouds where it looks like the sun could be trying to break on thru :razz:

Am I seeing hieroglyphics on those rocks? And, looks like the one next to it, covered with moss, is almost square shaped and flat. What's up with those rocks...are they Indians or my imagination? Aliens? :alieneyesa:

JW you must get tons of rain to have such thick moss even on the branches! Looks like a nice bike ride downhill but you would have to peddle hard to get back up! Must have been a good workout, did you figure out how you could get those big boulders home with you? :) Very nice view, looks just beautiful up there, even the chickens look happy too!

The weather here is crappy, winter is back and now I have to shovel the fresh snow before work today.... :(

Beautiful bike ride, JW. I would see the same thing from beginning to end if I took about a 10 mile round trip here at my house ... farmed fields. Yuck! Thanks for sharing your scenery. Loved the mule! Looked to be very interested in you, too, and chickens were adorable.
Colleen, wow, I saw 14 on your weather thingy. Yuck yuck yuck. It was 60 here yesterday, but cloudy by the time I got home. We walked around outside to see what is trying to peek out of my plants, then came inside to enjoy the wine and steaks. Too windy and chilly by the time the steaks and potatoes were done.
I am not planning on weather past the next day, as these weathermen/women at weather.com don't know what they are doing!!!! Now they are saying high today 50, tomorrow only 35 and snow. Next week in the 40's. Come on for goodness sake, keep it one way or the other. This 60's one day to 30's 2 days later is for the birds. Just makes me want to stay inside and cross stitch ... which is exactly what I will be doing tomorrow. Going to get out there and clean up the dead stuff from my flower beds today, though. Very hazy out there right now, wish the sun would come out and warm it up a little more.
