Not again !!!!!

We were camping down south of Cadillac on Wednesday and Thursday. It was simply beautiful, no bugs, temps in the high 70's and sunshine most of the day. The forcast was for rain on Friday, so we packed up as planned, towed home to do some things around the house this weekend.

Well, being Mother's Day, I had planned to get up early and make breakfast for someone special. When I looked out the kitchen window, a blanket of white stuff greeted me..... <sigh>

Will this ever end this year?????

It seems as if you guys just can't catch a break this spring. Make the best of the day and Happy Mothers Day to your Special Someone and the other Moms on the forum. Enjoy your day, Hank

John-
Time to move. Go West - or North - or South even. Surely, there has to be some positive attribute about Michigan.

Oh yes, the "coldest seat in the house" looks like it has moved off its foundation a touch....out of balance... over-inflated...possible blowout?

Wishing all of our special mothers a "Happy Mothers Day"

It sounds like you were able to sneak in a nice trip before the weather came back.

We're expecting a hard freeze here tonight. Fortunately, I have not yet unwinterized the TT yet. The plants are now covered and the garden hoses that I put out earlier in the week have been disconnected and drained. All of this for one night. The forecast calls for highs in the low 80'2 by Wednesday.

We checked our vineyard yesterday. There were a few leaves that were toasted. But, for the most part, everything looked good. We didn't have a crop last year. We are hoping for the best this year.
