    Snow in the UK?
    I went up to Paddy O'Quigley's, the other day, for a pint and met up with a bloody British chap who said airport runways were shut down for the first time he can remember, at both major London airports. Is the rest of Europe experiencing an early winter too? Y'all must be getting the snow that we're not getting here in Kansas City....

    Cold & Snow
    Got it up here in Ontario, Canada too. Beautiful snow, fluffy & flaky, just the way we like it. Already had a few good skates on the pond after the first snap and I'm looking forward to this lunar eclipse. Gonna go trudge through the woods in my woolens and breathe the good air. Happy Solstice!!!!

    Jackstraw, I'm way used to snow
    Lived in Maine a good long while...I actually used to have fun, which is to say actually enjoy, driving on fresh snow as long as no one else was on the road. It's this ice stuff that is more typical around here that gets scary, and the fact that the road crews aren't very well-prepared to handle it (a generous appraisal of their preparedness, I assure you). Yesterday you just didn't know minute-to-minute if the road was ok or if it was a sheet of ice. And then there's the clueless drivers -- one truck blew by me going at least 80 mph, and a few miles later I was following traffic going 5-10 mph. Reasonable speed was somewhere in between. Anyway, we'd be happy to send the snow and cold weather to CO where it belongs!

    Sounds like a typical commute for us! Fun isn't it? Although so far it has been way too mild. We need some snow!!! "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"

    Pinwheel down the road like carnival rides on the road to work this morning, hoping that I just hadn't had my ticket punched for a session of bumper cars! Not supposed to be like this in NC, at least not unless you're in the mountains. I moved from New England for this?

If you like fog, You're welcome to visit my neighborhood. Yes, folks, Pacifica, California does host its own annual Fog Festival each September in special honor of the dense, clammy, gray coastal fog bank which drops in when you least expect it - and makes you feel winter is just around the corner.We're right in the neighborhood near Devil's Slide on Highway 1. I'll see you at Linda Mar Beach!

Redbuds are profuse this year. Jack Frost has been good to us by staying away, so far. Today we have blue skies, scattered wispy thin clouds, with an expected high of 79 F. I planted 4 Better Boy tomatoes last night!! Last time I checked, Trifecta, Sierra Leone was on the Atlantic. like a steam locomotive, rolling down the track....

it IS-gr8fulTed"Sierra Leone, officially the Republic of Sierra Leone, is a country in West Africa. It is bordered by Guinea in the north and east, Liberia in the southeast, and the Atlantic Ocean in the southwest and west" pasted from Wikipedia Trifecta was also confused in the Heads of Africa thread ********************************** Don't part with your illusions.

Ya you guys are right it is the Atlantic. This is what happens when you live in Asia where everything is about the Pacific. Anyway, i stand corrected. Sun just set and there were some torrential down poor coming in from the "Atlantic" and now it is just humid and as i write this message i am sweating my !@##$ off! I am over looking the ocean from my room at the Bintumani. The room comes with worn out towels, roaches, fuzzy TV and an occasional power outage. God i love it. Tomorrow i am going to Banana Island for the day.

Another beautiful day but a bit cloudy as we are heading into the rainy season here. Last night the sun set on Atlantic Ocean was breathtaking with purple and red spectrums blazing beneath puffy purplish clouds. Here comes the Sun King.

We have a SW wind blowing up from the Yucatan and Gulf of mexico which means HOT weather. In the mid 90's and humid broke several records. No ocean breezes. Spent Saturday with 2 friends who have seen the Dead several hundred times. Mothers Day made the wife her favorite French toast casserole and took her to see Harold and Kumar movie which sucked and then a nice italian dinner at home with the kids. And the road goes on forever.... BobbaLee

I just saw the weather report spotlighting a T.S. named Bertha as has been seen by Mr. Pid, Candyman and you gotta take notice when a storm with hurricane potential goes by the name of Bertha. Suppose to be in play tracking toward the US Thursday. Ahoy matey's and islanders, coastal dwellers...Bertha's coming round. Maybe she's just passin' through...but give her plenty of room.
