summertime

i know it's only the 26th of april, smack dab in the middle of spring but it is HOT, HOT, HOT. these last couple of days have late july written all over them. i'm not complaining, not after what seemed like six months of winter. all the blossoms in bloom, gardens strutting their best, bees all a buzz......it feels great. last night, with the warm air blowing in my windows felt so right. here in the northeastern part of the country we don't get this weather too often. oh it gets hot and we do get those humid days that wilt even the hardiest souls but.....it never lasts. it, meaning the weather, likes to change its mind a bit. temps go up and down like the dow jones. rain appears and disappears at a moments notice. today i'm wearing just a pair of flip flops and old jean shorts[ calm down folks, no pics available...heehee]the sun is still shining brightly, well it should be, it's only a quarter to four, and i'm waiting till the sun retreats from my front porch so i can read a little more of the paper. i know this hot stuff won't last, spring will return and those summertime blues will be put on hold for a month or two but for now i''ll enjoy the heat, the lazy day and perhaps a glass of red. yes, that's what sounds good, take care blogers....jack c

  4. I know! The weather just shifts so fast that it's confusing. I'm glad it's cooler here now in CA. You can still feel the sun's heat but not sweltering. There are hot days when it's hard to breath! But like you, I'm still thankful the sun is spreading its warmth around us.

    Have a happy day!

  5. Happy weekend, Jack! Hope you're doing well.

    As to your question: I was there in New Paltz, NY last December visiting my childhood friend. It's beautiful there.

    Take care, my friend.
