The First Full Day Of Spring
« on: March 21, 2010, 07:56:58 AM »
and it's only 35 degrees this morning. Parts of northern Illinois had snow yesterday, and there was snow in other places, too. It's time to get the tar and feathers together and start hunting down the glowbull warming scam artists.

Supposed to be in the mid 70's today, but I don't get to enjoy it.  I'll spend my afternoon at a BINGO fundraiser for dance.  <sigh>

We actually had a pretty good day here in WV. About 70, went out riding the ATV with friends all day. The down side is it's going to rain, possible few flurries in it, on Sunday.

73 yesterday, 50 today.  If you don't like the weather in New Hampshire, just wait 15 minutes.  It'll get worse.

It better get warm and fast. I shoot every Sunday from April until November. They're held outside and last about six hours. Had our last indoor match this morning.

I had an emergency root canal Saturday morning. I did not leave the dentist's office until 4 PM. Then it was off to Las Vegas to see Barry Manilow! At first I did not know which of the two would be harder to sit through, the root canal or Manilow.


Over 4 1/2 hours in this dental chair:



It was 79 outside:



Then this:



Inside the Paris Hotel & Casino...very nice place:

Beautiful and sunny out.  Went to church this morning, then the farmer's market.  My vegetable garden is mostly in, so now I just have to wait for the vegetables to show up.   :-)  I'll probably mow the lawn shortly.
