Good Morning to you my friend. It is a very chilly morning here. Its 32 degrees here. We have a very good chance for snow today. I'm not thrilled about that, but we do need some moisture as it is very dry here. How are you doing on the Friday morning? Not much going on here, just trying to stay warm. The only part of me right now that is cold are my feet and I have warm socks on. Enjoy your Friday my friend and have a relaxing weekend. Take care.
I have a plant that is over 20 years old and I think it is on it's last leg. So I have been repotting the pieces that fall off for the last 2 years. I now have about 5-6 plants. Some buds are red, pink, and salmon colors all in the same pots. Not sure yet if there is any white. Some years they bloom at Christmas, sometimes at New Years, and sometimes even at Easter. I think it depends on the weather, the sun light vs darkness, and sometimes Mother Nature. This one is just starting to get buds. I'll take a picture when they open. Thanks Deb for the reminder. I saw them last week and forgot all about it. I will water everyone inside today.
Blessings to you this Friday. My page right now is all about winter and family but today let's take a road trip.
All my life has been about cars. My dad was a Plymouth, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep car dealer for 50 years. Roadtrips were always a part of that life. Do you have trips to reminisce about?
Growning up with 500 acres I learned to ride motorcycles at a young age. My favorite motorcycle road trip with Rbt was from Portland, OR down the coast on highway 101 around Crater Lake back up Hwy 97 through Bend and back to Portland. Wayne and Evelyn were on that trip with us. What memories!
I love roadtrip along the coast lines. Many, many years ago, Rbt and I traveled the coast line of California on Hwy 1. We went through Pebble Beach and made a stop at Carmel Beach. That was such a SHOCK to Rbt that the water was so cold. Texas coast has warm water and NO wetsuits needed.
While I don't like the cold weather, I have traveled to Banff in Canada and seen the biggest snow flurries on Mount Hood in Washington, again many years ago. It is beautiful to look at but I still can't understand how people live in such cold. I love the entire State of Texas!
A small car is fun to zip around town in, we had a Mini Cooper for a while, but I will always be a "MUSCLE CAR" girl at heart and no matter what I drive, I love driving fast.
I wish I had gotten my Grandparents VW bus from Oakland, CA and had turned it into something like this 40 years or so ago. What fun traveling around and sharing books with others would be. I hope you have enjoyed the roadtrip and the vehicles and will explore a trip of your own soon. Blessings & Hugs! Pam
I enjoy reading in the evening..usually in search of area newspapers online. Found a few great websites yesterday that offer archived material. It's a lazy day here. First part of the week was busy, so time to sit back and enjoy the quiet indoors.
As we settle into January, we are given time to reflect, rest, and be reassured that what lies ahead is something truly wonderful. Gray skies will be replaced by a painting only in its true form..provided by nature.
