Saturday April 8th It's Saturday, and I'm running late, and the day looks pretty much like yesterday. The temperature is 56°. The rains have moved out but you really can't tell it. Other than that I really don't have much to say.. so I won't say much. Y'all all have…
It's Saturday Not much to say today, other than... It's hot.
Thursday https://youtu.be/KXa99_c6-Ww It was 75°, when I walked out this morning onto the darkened back porch. The humidity was high settling like a blanket over the world. Once the sun began to brighten the neighborhood, I could see a light mist hugging the ground abd dew covering the grass and…
Friday Once again the day starts off with blue skies. Almost cloudless blue skies. It's warm and it's humid. But it's not the summertime slap you in the face, oh my God hot it will be. Here's the morning read on the weather... Pretty much par for the course this…
The temperature this morning is 74°. A very light, light rain is falling. From watching the radar the rain will be getting heavier through the morning. There is a frog singing to the rain somewhere close. And off in the distance the gentle sounds of roosters talking amongst themselves. The…
The coffeepot was still brewing when I came out... The back porch is pleasantly cool, the sun is bright, and the sky is clear. I have even turned the ceiling fans on... Way down low... Just to move the air around a little between breezes. My granddaughter brought me my…
It's another breezy overcast start to the day. The world is green. The coffee is hot. My wife is home again for another day. And I'm on the back porch listening to crows in the distance. This morning as I walked out, I heard a number of bluebirds singing in…
This is the kind of spring morning in Southeast Texas that you just want to cherish. Blue skies, low temperatures, hello humidity. The temperature this morning 63°. I can see the latest update to Android is going to take some getting used to {period} it seems as if suddenly you…
It's just another overcast and cloudy sky day. It's warm, it's muggy, and the prognosticators are saying there's a good chance of rain coming with the cool front... That hopefully, will blow through sooner rather than later. As I was sitting out at the road waiting for the buses this…
It's a comfortable 69° out this morning as a light rain falls. We are still under a flash flood watch or warning, I can never keep them straight. The Cardinals are singing now out in the rain. But other than that it's quiet. I can't even hear the murmur of…
Wordless Wednesday
It's a cool 61° on the back porch this morning. The Cardinals are chirping. The roosters around the corner are for lack of a better term, The spring flowers in the yard are fading. I guess I'm going to have to eventually fire up the mower and attack the high…
I was surprised when I walked out this morning to find the temperature at 53°. It's been a couple of days since the " cool front " moved through, so I really wasn't expecting it. I don't even think the forecast called for it to be that low. Also, not…
The color green has over taken the world these days. With a little splashes of white and pink and blue and purple scattered around the yard. And there are splashes blue and red and brown and russet scattered amongst the trees. It's wildflowers scattered around the yard and birds scattered…
The air is heavy with moisture. There's a light fog hanging close to the ground. And a heavy dew has coated everything with big fat water droplets. As we said at the end of the driveway waiting for the bus, great big fat water droplets make patterns on the windshield.…
Well spring has truly arrived. I can see hints of green even around the mostly bare pecan trees. The morning temperature is 69°. The air is dry, there was no dew on the windows of the car this morning. The morning birdsong is everywhere around the yard. Hummingbirds flit like…
There's a layer of fog hanging in the air this morning. Which means, not a breeze is stirring. The temperature is already above 60°. And, it'll be heading much higher today. Sitting out waiting on the school bus, I saw three pairs of whistling ducks flying over. I haven't yet…
Another pleasantly cool spring morning, it's 52°. Just a light breeze blowing. An almost cloudless sky. Bright spring sunshine. Walking out on the back porch this morning I spooked Blue Jay on the feeder. Since it's a bit late, I didn't hear the morning bird song I've been hearing the…
Once again the skies are overcast. The temperature is 69 degrees this morning. There's a chance of rain this afternoon. And the birds are filling the air with birdsong. Really for the first time in a long time I'm sitting in the rockers on the back porch... Watching springs bursting…
It's another dark and overcast morning. We're starting out fairly warm at 71°. There's a chance of rain all weekend long... We'll just have to wait and see. Can't help but green up the browns of winter... As I was taking the photos above, I saw the first whistling ducks…
It's a beautiful clear morning. Temperature in the mid 50s. Cloudless skies. Sunshine hitting the tree limbs, making them stand out beautifully. A cool list of the morning will only be with us for the day. Tomorrow we're back up in the sixties, upper sixties. With highs pushing 80 and…
Sunset No coffee muse this morning. So I thought I'd flip it around and just show some photos taken at sunset. I hope you had a wonderful day. Y'all stay safe, stay healthy, and pray for our nation and our world.

Happy Birthday Abby It's chilly this morning, and there's a bit of a breeze blowing, but it'll warm up some by afternoon. Sitting at the bus stop, the temperature on the car dashboard is 44°. The wait with one grandchild is what it takes to warm the car. The second…
Yesterday's fog, that lingered all day, has carried over into the new morning. And it is a new morning, a morning for America, a morning for democracy once again. This blanket of fog, hanging low, holding sound to the ground, making birds voices ring throughout the yard, through the woods,…
It's warmish but blustery. Birds are singing. Chickens are doing whatever it is chickens do when they talk to each other. There's a bright orange glow to the east as the sun lights the bottoms of the clouds that cover the sky. The temperature right now is 64°, but the…
Slept in this morning. So it's 48°, not too cold. Once again, no clouds. Our fox came by again last night. I guess it's a good thing he was out that first morning... Otherwise I never would have spotted him at night. I added some solar lights to the back…
It's 36° on the back porch this morning. But it's sunny and bright and it'll hit 60° before it starts back down. There's not a cloud in the sky and the sun is brighter than it should be on a Saturday morning. The gray fox visited again last night. I…
The start of school for 2021 Up early, kids out to the road, waiting on buses in the fog. Both of the grandkids now headed for school for the first time since March 2020. Let's hope this isn't a mistake. It's quite foggy out this morning. The birds are singing…
Once again it's 70° this morning. It's very breezy. But the clouds that cover the sky, they are standing still. The chickens around the corner talking as chickens do. And the wind is whistling through the pines. When I came out this morning, I forgot to bring me a cup…
