Thanks for tonight's Canteen, Beachie!

Summer weather continues here, we don't get much humidity in the high E. Washington desert so high temps are much more bearable.

Lunch with son tomorrow and then lazing as usual, 'sup with you?

Howdy, beachy! *HUGZ*

Has the weather been as nice this week as forecast?

Today was finally a comfortable one, though still a little warm. Low humidity is what made the difference.

Good evening Pro ((HUGS))
We've had a couple of beautiful, spring-like days.
Yay! Lunch with your kid. Then, being lazy is what us retired people like to do. LOL

[beachn4fun]

Good evening ML ((HUGS))
Have you gotten any sunshine lately?

[left that other site]

Rainy for two days, more predicted tomorow.

The grass is getting long and VERY Green.

Necessary, but not good for hiking or riding the harley.

[beachn4fun]

LOL. normal life for you is staying up late and sleeping late.

Glad the end is near for you to get back to your normal.

Been a couple of beautiful days, here. Low humidity and spring breezes.

[beachn4fun]

I feel for ya.
We had a big storm roll in a couple nights ago but the last couple of days has been spring-like. Gotta enjoy it because rain is coming back starting Sunday and temps go back up. We should be in Michigan next month when the heat returns.

[luvie]

Howdy, beachy! You’re welcome.

Hope you have a great weekend! And nice weather for it. Have you gotten a lot of rain?

[beachn4fun]

Hey night owl

We’ve been having a lot of rain. But after the last storm (with tornado warnings) we’ve had beautiful weather. Mornings are in the mid-60s.
Got more rain starting Sunday with chance for a full week.

Did your grass turn green after your rain?

May God bless our military. Good men and women who give their lives for our wonderful country in service and dedication. May they be protected from harm and the best to all of them.
