I will try to send you a few 80's. It was 87 here today. 100% humidity is the norm. You have a pretty house in a nice setting. Looking forward to your next post on Michigan politics.

Ah, low 80s. I remember them

In reply to So sorry about your brother,

Appalachian foothills in north Georgia! With an early Easter, I expected an early spring but not a seque right into summer.

But it's not the heat it's

But it's not the heat it's the humidity. (Nah, it's the heat. . .)

Yeah, that would be roundabouts November/December weather for us, 'fore "winter" sets in. But fog looks a bit like snow if you squint hard enough.

All stretched out. Now it's

All stretched out. Now it's sags and bags. Not that I'm complaining. It could be worse.

I think.

In reply to Well "roasting" to a southern

Oh, I see. Southern boy, hmmm? Yes, it's all relative. To us Michiganders temps in the 90s with 90% humidity is roasting. We Yoopers like to gloat is all. Ha!

So sorry about your brother,

In reply to Sincere sympathy. I lost my

So sorry about your brother, Emma. Thank you for your thoughts. Where are you that you're getting temps in the low 80s? We could use a little of that right now.

Thanks, Flower. I'm still in

In reply to What a sad mission to have to

Thanks, Flower. I'm still in shock, I guess, and the finality of it comes in waves. But I'm really happy to be back in Michigan. Saw Sandhill cranes in a field today, so they're on their way back, too. And a mink on a dock. Hundreds of Canada geese, of course, and a beautiful eagle sat still on the top of a broken tree trunk long enough for me to get a picture yesterday.

I love being back for the migration and I swear I'm seeing green buds so there is much to look forward to. Our bay looks to be frozen solid but I'm hoping it's just an illusion.
