Ah, good! I didn’t know when this week they’d be there. Now the yard is ready for greenery to start springing forth, and I know you look forward to that.
I keep hoping to see green when I pull of the Lake Hood cam but so far, only a small area of Gull Island is greening up a little.
Be glad you don’t live in Finland. They still have snow on the ground and it’s below freezing. People are skiing at Zero Point right now. BRRRRRRR

I hope the weather is nice Saturday so you can get out in the yard for a bit. You need rain but not that day! LOL

Howdy, E.G.C. ((HUGZ))

Did you and Gizmo get rudely awakened by the storms that have been going through overnight? It’s looked a bit ugly over your way.

At least the weather behaved yesterday so you could head out to the lake.

Well, darn. Maybe they’ll be very quiet neighbors.

Hi, Kathy! That’s awesome. I know you’ll be thrilled to see some green instead of white. Enjoy it while you have it. What kind of plants do you have around your place?

I know how relieved I was to see buds on the trees and green grass coming up where before there was only straw. Everything was late this year and I was getting very depressed looking out the windows. LOL!

Yep, we did get awakened not so much by the storms so much as by the storm alarm and especially the Tornado Warnings over by the county next to us to the West.

And now, Lawton is under a Flash Flood Warning and they're saying the threat is considerable but yes things have calmed down here for now. Still under a Tornado Watch until 4 AM CDT.

It’s not like we’re in a subdivision. Our house is a tenth of a mile off the road and they’re on the other side of the road. They’d have to be mighty noisy to bother us. Considering what they paid for the place, they aren’t trailer trash riffraff.

There are still storms close by so it isn’t over yet. Maybe it won’t get too bad at your place. Fingers crossed for luck!

She’s great with people...not so great with other animals.

Considering how early the first snow was last year and how long it stuck around, it’s going to be a big thrill for everyone up there to see green and flowers. It was a loooooooong winter.

Hope you have another wonderful time today.

Well, that’s true. You’re so used to having the whole place to yourself, though. :) I would love to know who buys a house that doesn’t have closets and only one bath. LOL

I guess I’d better go. Didn’t get much of a nap today and shockingly, I finished watching a show early. See ya ....mmmm...Saturday! Have fun at the museum!

As long as they aren’t the type who think we need to make adjustments in how we all do things just to suit them, things will be fine.

Maybe they’ll make one of the tiny rooms a walk-in closet. LOL Otherwise, I don’t know what they’ll do. Their problem though.

Enjoy what decent weather is left before the heat ramps up.
Catch ya Saturday evening.
