This is what we've been waiting for!

Another Spring Morning!

It's 38 degrees and clear at 5:45.

This is just a "bare bones" post:
I have photos AND, also,
a letter from School Board write-in candidate "Bud" Dorr
that I'll publish late this afternoon!

(If another of the other candidates want to send me letters to publish,
I'll be glad to post those, too.)

From WKTV: "A large scale block in the atmosphere will help keep our weather dry for the next several days.

Morning frost followed by lots of sunshine today. Temperatures will warm up quickly today, with highs approaching 70 by the afternoon. Clear skies tonight with temperatures falling into the upper 30s to lower 40s.

Staying sunny and dry through Friday, with highs in the 70s."


Lawns are being mown, fields plowed and planted, flowerbeds weeded, and - even - swimming pools readied for "Summer."

From Gayle Donovan Ladd, who was amused to find a photograph of Acrelac employee Aaron Ladd in yesterday's post because she knows ANOTHER Aaron Ladd: her son!


The other Aaron Ladd.

From Jody Hildreth.


This awesome photograph of "Horse Tail Grass" - Equisetum.



Very common next to roadside ditches and in all soggy spots, but also very unusual because.......


"Equisetum is a 'living fossil', as it is the only living genus of the entire class Equisetopsida, which for over one hundred million years was much more diverse and dominated the understory of late Paleozoic forests. Some Equisetopsida were large trees reaching to 30 meters tall."

Dinosaur food? Could be!
