Monday it was 75 degrees. Today 65 and rain is on it's way. The Pineapple Express could bring as much as 7 inches to the Santa Cruz Mountains. Our area is expecting 2-3 inches.

We've gone from 5-8+" of snow tomorrow to just showers in the morning. Goes to show how changeable the weather is here in DC. Blink and it's completely different!

As a result I've not done much outside today. We are expecting 1-3" snow tonight/early AM. No big deal and only a 10° swing or so in the temps. That, I do not mind.


3-6-2018. Yes, it did drop about 60 degrees in 17 hours.





I'm easily entertained.



3-6-2018.



3-5-2018. I love the light just before the sun sets!

3-5-2018. I'm glad I finally fixed my gear shift cable problem and got in a ride, yesterday.

I haven't had any luck with it, Emil. The few birds I've had so far are ground feeders and won't use the perches. I end up dumping the seeds out on the deck to get them to eat. Have you used yours, yet?

Patty, did you get that bird feeder at CostCo?
It looks like the one that we got for our son and his family.

Yes, I did, Sue. I thought it was flimsy but it's bullet proof. I had winds so strong it was flung off the hanging hook and crashed in the rocks below. It was still perfectly fine.
