I wish we COULD send this rain to y’all. We don’t need it and there’s more coming this weekend. We need to dry out.
I’m enjoying the mild temps at least. Hit 60 this afternoon while I was out, sat there a while, and now it’s slowing going up.

But much as I hate it, we need a long cold spell to kill off bugs. This spring and summer will be awful otherwise.

Trees close to the other house are a lot of why it was dark inside. That and that horrid wood paneling everywhere. The living room in this house has paneling, too, and it’s one thing I don’t like about the house. The rest of the house has white walls and is so much brighter.

Where you are, you do need trees to help keep the house cooler during summer. They help a lot here, too, but they must have socked it to this house with insulation when it was built because it stays cool during summer without a horrendous electric bill.

It looks like we’ll have some fun overnight. More rain and some thunderstorms keep building up and moving this way. I went to the other house a few minutes ago and got back just before another downpour. Had some lightning close by too.

Hmmm...sounds like maybe you’ll get the chance to shoot some lightning videos maybe. That would make it worthwhile for sure!

Are you thinking of painting the paneling in the living room? I guess it would have been best to do that when the house was empty. It’s not a really dark paneling though, right. It looked kind of maple-y in the pics.
