What's up with the Groundhog?

The groundhog did NOT see his shadow this year! He didn't!
There, I've said it. I should have been able to expect an "early Spring" this year according to this year's Groundhog day prognostication. Well, the Groundhog has blown it so far.

Our Presidents day weekend started out with a beautiful Saturday. It was bright and sunny with a blue sky. We spent time outside and I even washed the Big Green van with the help of some of the kids. Of course that really jinxed it! It got overcast later and Sunday was grey, overcast, and rainy. Monday wasn't much better.

Today didn't look too bad for my ride into Seattle, but Leslie had all kinds of bad weather in her driving day. She had hail and rain with a large number of auto accidents thrown in. I'm just glad that she didn't have any fender benders. I'm taking the train home now and I hope that I won't find hail and locusts waiting for me when I get to my stop.

My hope is that we will eventually get some more sunshine as we are all tired of the rain. I hope everyone else is having a better time than we are!

Please, please bottle the rain and send it to Apple Valley. We have had only one fairly good rain this year. Uncle Jimmy says, "We have had two inches of rain, one DROP with and another over there."
All is well here. Your Dad started planting lettuce, got the seeds in the ground, next day saw the first Ground Squirrels.
Love to all!!!!!!
