Posted about this in the weather and weekend thread, but this weekend is peak cherry blossom time, finally. Except the weather is going to be not great for them. Wind is the biggest enemy and Sat promises to be a lousy day with cold temps and snow/rain mix. April is forecast to be the coldest since 2007, so I'm not too pleased about that. Jan and Feb turned out to be spring here. The +1 will be running in messy weather in C-ville on Sat, and my friend and I will be on a Potomac river cruise in the evening that is supposed to include fireworks. Not sure that is happening. And with temps barely reaching 40, I think most of the people will be in the enclosed deck! If is doesn't get canceled altogether. But the International Club site says rain or shine.

75° here today through Friday. Certainly top down weather. I'm just hoping it stays this way, or gets warmer, Friday next week through Sunday: Long Beach GP. I've been to all of them. This will be #44.

There is a video online by an attorney who says it does everything he would do and probably more. He said unless his clients have very complex issues - - multiple houses, multiple business, etc. he recommends it to his clients. The only complaints I've read about it is the phone customer service for it is not what some people expected. I don't plan to call them anyways.

I plan to download the software and do it myself. I called around to a couple attorneys and they want 10 times the cost. Not worth it for simple wills.
Thanks for thinking of us. I'll send you a PM with correct spelling on our names and our SS numbers.

This winter was especially cruel with such a mild February you thought the spring warm up was right around the corner.

George, and you wonder why your posts are ignored?

I kind of get ^it. I was in SoCal last week. Lupine were springing up right behind my house. Back in Colorado there's a hint of green on the open ground. I trimmed the dead parts off of plants here yesterday when it got up to 69. I'm learning what colder weather is compared to SoCal. I would be sick to hell of winter, too, if snow was on the ground.

Uhoh...big cold front coming in this afternoon with 40-50 mph winds. Could be a problem for the cherry blossoms about to peak.
