Howdy, Kathy.

Shocker! I pulled up the Lake Hood cam today and you have sunshine! It looked foggy over your way for a while but that’s gone at last. Nice to see after the gloomy weather y’all have had the past few days.

It is beautiful outside!! A trip to the mailbox mid-morning saw a beautiful, clear, blue sky, and it has remained so.
But it is hot...73 now. But I got a half hour on the deck, no breeze, right after I got off work.
