Last night we had some wind and rain that would have made you think you were out on the ocean somewhere. Winds were probably 30 to 40 miles an hour with sideways rain. This morning, everything is super green from all the moisture. We have some clouds, but the blue sky is shining through. The storms we get here head east and turn into tornados once they hit the flat plains and warmer weather. Not good for those in the Midwest.
Ty went to the memorial service yesterday for Aiden, and then a bunch of friends hung out for the day. He was home late, but up and out early for work at 7. I filled the bird feeders again this morning. We have a few new goshawk’s, which are black, white, and orange. Really pretty birds. Lots of bears out this year too. None up here, knock on wood. They tend to be in the more wooded areas, like places with big trees and cover.
Lori made a French tea cake with infused orange zest. It was really good, like something from Europe. I think we’ll put it out with chocolate fondue tomorrow. We bought a new fondue pot yesterday as ours blew up when Jag was up here, and it was warming up on sterno with nothing in it. Note to all, make sure something is in your fondue pot before heating it up.
Looks like Lori and I are headed to Spain and Portugal mid-July to hook up with James and the band for the two shows in Madrid. A couple of other couples will go with us. We were going to take the boys, but Jag can’t go, so we’ll do another trip with both boys. Ty was going to go with us, but it probably wouldn’t be much fun for him with six adults. More on this in a few days. I pooled our miles, so we have over 700,000 between Lori and me. Need to make sure we’re flying First Class as we can’t go coach.
That’s it, time to get moving and grooving. Have a great Sunday and GB.
