Same here in Loveland. Yesterday it got up to around 70 and today it's been snowing off and on at about 36.

It's funny that we do the same...I often open the window for my cat. He loves smelling the outside fragrances,sounds and experiencing the difference in temperatures.

Leo wants to go outside so much! When I have a slider open he'll whine up a storm wanting to go out. I've let him out twice and he hides. I would love to have a catio so he could go out but not be in danger.

Thelma has to settle for open windows. She's not going outside. I've had indoor/outdoor cats and inevitably I end up with vet bills due to a fight, worms, or whatever. Thelma has escaped a few times. I do have a "scat mat" by the door, recommended by the vet. It gives her a little static electricity type of "reminder" if she steps on it. She now avoids the back door. Keep your kitty inside or get a catio of some kind. They are safer.

My mom would lock me and my brother in the back yard away from the pool. He is 1 1/2 years younger than me but he showed his mechanical expertise early on. He instantly figured out how to open the latch. She tried. He drove his tricycle into the pool twice before she took him for swim lessons. He'd just sit there in the bottom of the pool and look around.


^Sunny SoCal by the pool as kids in North Hollywood.

Officially the craziest April ever here in the DC area. Yesterday at the Nats game, it was supposed to be near 60 but the wind was so bad, it felt like 46. There were more people inside the club area than outside. I've never seen so many people inside. I saved a third chair for my nephew who went to his outside seat for a bit. I could have sold that seat for quite a bit!! Now it is 44 headed for 70. Tues, Wed and Thurs will be in the 80s.
