A return to our very short spring….
I'm standing out on the front porch this morning. Waiting for my grandson to get on the school bus... And I'm struck by how beautiful a spring morning it is. Even though the sun is not up, the birds are singing as if their lives depended upon it. There is…
It’s a bit nippy out this morning…
The trip out onto the front porch first thing this morning was really chilly... It was 45° outside. The photo above is taken from the back porch just before the second bus run... 2 weeks ago. This would have been what it looked like at the first bus run. A…
It Ain’t Over Yet…
Every once in awhile you hear a song that stops you in your tracks. This song does it every time I hear it... every damn time! I'm not sure when Rodney Crowell first entered my awareness. I mean he has been bouncing around in there for decades... Hell he's been…
Music on a Sunday Afternoon…
I have an old playlist playing today... It's bringing up plenty of old memories... https://youtu.be/AaZD_r3zXGk?si=h1MB_whdjrp6kosl https://youtu.be/BPTOY8FrvNw?si=-O1GXSs0KAQTtMY- https://youtu.be/PTUkE3hj8i8?si=n1ScCZCJMTjSKcaG And the music keeps playing...
While I wasn’t paying attention… Spring arrived..
Monday, March 4th While I was standing on the front porch waiting for the second bus.. I noticed the predominance of the color green. Just a week or so ago, gray was the predominant color of my front yard. So I guess you could say spring snuck up on me.…

2023 Day 226
Monday August 14th It's another warm and humid morning on the porches. At least the fan provides a bit of wind chill as I sit on the front porch watching for the buses. But all in all, there isn't much chill in the air in my neck of the woods...…
2023 Day 188
Friday July 7th Weather Muses - The overcast this morning is complete. You can almost make out where the sun is on the horizon.. almost. As far as temperatures and humidity and dew points go .. it is all pretty much a repeat of yesterday. Speaking of yesterday, we had…
2023 Day 163
Monday June 12th It was very hazy as the sun came up this morning. Though not uncomfortable, the temperature and humidity cause anticipation and dread for the afternoons to come. As I watch my backyard, I see flashes of bright red against a dark green background. And the vividness of…
2023 Day 157
Tuesday June 6th Space City Weather keeps warning that these cool mornings will come to an end here shortly. And I'm sure they're right, because the humidity is rising. But as long as the dew points hang below 70°, I think I'll be happy. Once again it's mostly quiet out.…

2023 Day 103
Thursday April 13th The progression of the seasons is well advanced and I've missed most of it due to the continued overcast we've had. The Sun, on its annual progression to the north, has now reached the point where the back porch will be touched less and less to fall…
2023 Day 99
Sunday April 9th I hope this Easter Sunday finds everyone happy. Colored eggs and Easter bunnies or much more appreciated when all of the grandkids were actually little kids. But absolutely everyone still enjoys Easter candy. As strange as it may seem.. before bed last night I could actually see…
2023 Day 97
Friday April 7th It's a cool 59° this morning with a light rain falling. There's a steady breeze blowing out of the north at 10 mph. The breeze is just hard enough to make the tree limbs sigh as a move back and forth. Once again, we are facing a…
2023 Day 71
Sunday March 12th The temperature is 71°. Humidity is at 89%. Daylight savings time is in effect... Again. So, I guess I should change my clocks... The only ones that really matter most are the alarm clocks in the bedroom... And yes we still use digital alarm clocks. I would…
2023 Day 57
Sunday February 26th It's another overcast morning in the backyard. For some reason, even with the temperature at 71°, it feels cooler out this morning. I really don't understand it... The humidity is at 90%. But I guess I will be happy for small favors. The day is mostly going…
2023 Day 43
Sunday February 12th Cold Morning... It's 37° this morning on the back porch. And as the sun comes up it's quite bright. But I won't be spending much time out here ... I'm heading back in to my cup of coffee. It's Sunday morning and I don't have any plans.…
2023 Day 33

December Day 26
Monday Well, the big day is over... Peace and quietude has descended over this house once again. Listening to music in my big easy chair... I don't have much to say this morning so I'll leave you with what I'm listening to right now... https://youtu.be/S_E5Nw5lnrw

It's Tuesday https://youtu.be/riQWKn0rXr8 I find myself enjoying my musical journey more and more. Shannon McNally showed up in my rotation the other day. I only have one of her songs in my library and I didn't recall hearing it before... But something in her voice grabbed me and made me…
It’s the 18th day of July
It's Monday This time it's for real Linda... I was off to the doctor earlier today... Nothing wrong, just a regular follow-up. When I got back I was wandering around the internets... Somehow I stumbled upon a site called Cover Lay Down. They seem to have had their last post…
