A grapevine it's not

Went to Epcot in celebration of the rents leaving. Yeah I know, that sounds mean..whatever. Hot hot hot as hell. I looked at my phone at one point and it said 97°. It’s not even summer yet!!! We kept having to duck into shady spots to stay cool. As a result we hit more rides [...]

The babies are gone :( Peeked into their nest this morning and they’re growd up and flied away. The middle guys was starting to get a little fat for his perch last time I saw him poking his little beak out. I think I’ve seen them flying around. I really have to download my pictures [...]

Some moron decided it would be a good idea to light a fire today. Must’ve thought “Gee, it rained 2 days ago”. Yeah, 7/8″ of rain over two days. The lake is lower than I have ever seen it; the wind is whipping at 15 mph with 20 mpg gusts. Oh, and it’s blowing towards [...]

An email passed through my inbox yesterday. I chose not to look at it immediately since it was Mother’s Day and I wanted to remain in a chipper mood. The title read “Resend with photos – Please Read…And Then do Something About It!!!” In my years of emailing those are never happy shots. So I [...]

7000 dead (so far) in China from a 7.8 magnitude earthquake, including children in classes; unknown thousands dead from a cyclone in Myanmar, and aid being withheld; crazy tornadoes in the central US, 22 dead over Mother’s Day; fires in Florida’s Volusia and Brevard counties. Gee, so how long til they make the step over [...]

The Boczars, the neighbor and the rents came over yesterday. Had a really nice time actually. The kids jumped into the pool for a while, as did L and C. I showed L the greenhouse and new things in the garden. The rents left in the middle to go check into their hotel, but came [...]

Found an interesting posting today on eddoe, the vegetable. Having never heard of it I thought I’d read on, so here…http://greatbigvegchallenge.blogspot.com/2007/06/e-is-for-eddoe.html  Sad i’ve never seen one in Wally World, and there’s no way I’d ever see something that unique in Publix. I’ll search harden now :) Went to dinner with the rents last night, they [...]

The lake is disappearing at an alarming rate. The two small ponds, which were connected after our string of storm a few years back, are now dismally low. The wading birds barely have water to cover their legs. I don’t want to ask the Universe for heavy storms but, unfortunately, it’s the only thing that [...]
