Remember Colleen, June 20 is the 1 year anniversary of the flood.
We've been getting a lot of rain here plus 5 hailstorms so far in the last couple of weeks.
We usually don't get hail until July.
It's too wet here for me to do much work outside.
My pond temperature is hovering around the 56F mark. Almost too cold to feed the fish.

3 minutes later I got dumped on! Fortunately for me I had an umbrella in my back pack but still shoes and socks and left coat arm got soaked. Oh well it stopped after about 15 mins and I came upon a nice couple in the tree farm:

It was not too bad today, cold in the morning, but this afternoon we had a little bit of sun, but gone now I see as clouds have rolled in. I here there is some flood warnings out for parts of southern Alberta, cause large amounts of rain coming. It won't flood here I don't think, river is fine right now and can hold lots of water still.... I think I said that last year too!

Yesterday coming home from the park, me and the hubby spotted this strange looking biker guy, with a old American flag and a old German flag flying behind his bike, he had a leather jacket with crosses on the back shoulder of his leather Jacket. We were parked behind him and had followed him half way back from the river park, Not sure what to make of him, but he looked like he was trying to make some kind of statement....

My hubby said he could be a white supremest or some kind of KKK clan guy. Just guessing tho.
Just looked this up: http://archive.adl.org/hate_symbols/racist_confederate_flag.html
Then it depends on what kind of crosses he had on his coat. If just a regular Christian type could mean also that he is a white supremest but if it was iron cross like these: http://www.choppers.com/iron_cross.asp
The German flag could go either way. Who knows!
He has some kind of metal thing on his left shoulder w/a chain on it.

CONGRATULATIONS, j.w.! You have just earned the dubious distinction of awarding me "LIKE # 2,000"!! And as for the sun, you are welcome to keep it for the next three hours or so, since it's going down here anyway. Enjoy! :D

Oh what a wonderful sleep I had, the best in a long time, woke up to a light breese and the birds were chipping loudly overhead in the treetops! The sky was dark blue as the sun is just poking out, what a wonderful way to start the day, slept soundly like a baby, outside by my pond in my gazbo, on the bench piled high with cushions and a warm snuggly blanket!
I think you are right JW, about that biker guy, hubby thought the same thing too, I wondered if he was going to get beat up driving around town with that getup!
