SECOND
Good evening du ((HUGS))
You got that right. It's been very chilly for our morning walks.
Especially when the wind blows in your face!
The afternoons are pretty nice, though.
You get a warm up?

[beachn4fun]

THIRD
Good evening night owl ((HUGS))
Thanks for the ping!
Are you getting heat with a heat wave yet?

[luvie]

Hi, there, Early Bird! 🐦‍⬛You're welcome.

Seems we had our heat wave last month...high 90s. Now it's been in the 70s or low 80s, which is nice for our area. How're things there?

[left that other site]

Funny...I’m really tired though.

heading for bed soon.
But I DO like to be #1.😁

[radu]

Ugh! The wind could at least be at your backs to make it a little more tolerable. Hope it warms up soon!

It’s been gorgeous the past two days with highs in the mid 70s. That’s over now. A real warm-up the next week, at least, with highs in the mid to upper 80s. Not quite ready for that.

[beachn4fun]

IN FOR THE COUNT
Goog evening Pro ((HUGS))
Yay! Got got some spring weather.
Our weather can't make up its mind.
Mornings are in the 30s right now, so heat got turned on.
It may have gotten into the 60s today.
And nice springy weather through the weekend.
Then the heat up. Next Wednesday and Thursday will be in the low 90s. SMH
Your daughter still in MD?

[beachn4fun]

But I DO like to be #1.😁

How doesn't LOL Sweet dreams.

Good Night!

(((HUGS)))

[PROCON]

Daughter & hubby moved back here and bought a house way north of Seattle.

[beachn4fun]

Good deal on the cool down.

Mornings have been in the 30s.

We’re in for a heat wave by mid week. {{sigh}} Crazy.

[radu]

Howdy, luvie.

Hope your day was good.

Mine started too early for my taste - LOL - but was a good one. Gorgeous too. Just wish it would stay this way for a while longer.

[beachn4fun]

Hope it warms up soon!

By mid-week, you'll get your wish.
Our forecast says 90 by Wednesday. Definitely not ready for that.
